爱比克泰德:论说集与手册·摘录 64

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

Ought you not to have gained something in addition from reason, and then to have protected this with security? And whom did you ever see building a battlement all around and encircling it with a wall? And what doorkeeper is placed with no door to watch? But you practise in order to be able to prove—what? You practise that you may not be tossed as on the sea through sophisms, and tossed about from what? Show me first what you hold, what you measure, or what you weigh; and show me the scales or the medimnus (the measure); or how long will you go on measuring the dust? Ought you not to demonstrate those things which make men happy, which make things go on for them in the way as they wish, and why we ought to blame no man, accuse no man, and acquiesce in the administration of the universe?

白话

你难道不应该从理性中真正获得一些东西,然后把它牢牢守护住吗?你见过谁建了城墙和堡垒,却只修了门楼没有门,或者放了门卫却没有门可守?你练习逻辑,到底是为了证明什么?是为了不被诡辩搅得晕头转向,可你连自己持有什么、用什么标准衡量都说不清。先告诉我你的尺子、你的秤在哪里,否则你只是在称量灰尘。你真正该做的是去弄明白:什么让人幸福,什么让人事事顺遂,为什么我们不该责怪任何人、不该指控任何人,以及如何接受宇宙的安排。

上下文

爱比克泰德批评学生只学逻辑技巧却不用于人生,强调哲学要解决幸福和接受命运的问题。
