奥里森·斯威特·马登《向前进》· Pushing to the Front · 领导
On the other hand, we frequently meet people who make us shrivel and shrink into ourselves. The moment they come near us we experience a cold chill, as if a blast of winter had struck us in midsummer. A blighting, narrowing sensation, which seems to make us suddenly smaller, passes over us. We feel a decided loss of power, of possibility. We could no more smile in their presence than we could laugh while at a funeral. Their gloomy miasmatic atmosphere chills all our natural impulses. In their presence there is no possibility of expansion for us. As a dark cloud suddenly obscures the brightness of a smiling summer sky, their shadows are cast upon us and fill us with vague, undefinable uneasiness.

白话
有些人一靠近,我们就觉得浑身不自在,像夏天突然吹来一阵冷风,整个人缩起来,好像变小了,力量也少了。在他们面前,我们笑不出来,就像在葬礼上不能笑一样。他们那种阴沉的气氛,把我们自然的冲动都冻住了,让我们没法舒展。就像乌云遮住晴朗的夏日天空,他们的影子罩着我们,让我们感到一种说不清的紧张。这种人的存在,会让我们本能地收起自己的希望和抱负,觉得自己的目标变得可笑,生活的色彩和滋味都消失了。他们的影响是让人瘫痪的,我们只想赶快离开。
