爱比克泰德:论说集与手册·摘录 62

爱比克泰德《论说集与手册》· Discourses and Enchiridion · 健康 · 行动 · 人性 · 认知

Having these things (or thoughts) always in hand, and exercising them by yourself, and keeping them in readiness, you will never be in want of one to comfort you and strengthen you. For it is not shameful to be without something to eat, but not to have reason sufficient for keeping away fear and sorrow. But if once you have gained exemption from sorrow and fear, will there any longer be a tyrant for you, or a tyrant’s guard, or attendants on Cæsar? Or shall any appointment to offices at court cause you pain, or shall those who sacrifice in the Capitol on the occasion of being named to certain functions, cause pain to you who have received so great authority from Zeus? Only do not make a proud display of it, nor boast of it; but show it by your acts; and if no man perceives it, be satisfied that you are yourself in a healthy state and happy.

白话

把那些能让你内心强大的道理随时带在身边,自己反复练习,需要时就能拿出来用,这样你永远不会缺一个安慰和鼓励自己的人。因为没饭吃并不丢人,真正丢人的是缺乏足够的理性去驱散恐惧和悲伤。一旦你摆脱了悲伤和恐惧,暴君、卫兵、凯撒的随从对你还有什么威胁?宫廷里的职位升降还会让你痛苦吗?那些因为被任命而到神庙献祭的人,还会让你这个从宙斯那里得到如此大 authority 的人感到不安吗?只是别炫耀、别自夸,用行动表现出来;即使没人注意到,你自己知道内心健康、幸福就够了。

上下文

爱比克泰德是古罗马斯多葛派哲学家,曾为奴隶。这段话出自《语录》,教导人依靠内在理性获得自足。
