马可·奥勒留《沉思录》· Meditations · 健康 · 认知 · 行动 · 哲学

XV. It is high time for thee, to understand that there is somewhat in thee, better and more divine than either thy passions, or thy sensual appetites and affections. What is now the object of my mind, is it fear, or suspicion, or lust, or any such thing? To do nothing rashly without some certain end; let that be thy first care. The next, to have no other end than the common good. For, alas! yet a little while, and thou art no more: no more will any, either of those things that now thou seest, or of those men that now are living, be any more. For all things are by nature appointed soon to be changed, turned, and corrupted, that other things might succeed in their room.

白话

你该明白,你内心有比激情和感官欲望更神圣的东西。现在占据你心灵的是什么?恐惧、猜疑还是欲望?首先,做事不要没有明确目标就轻举妄动;其次,目标只能是公共利益。因为不久之后你就会消失,眼前的一切和所有人也会消失。万物本性上注定很快变化、转变、消亡,以便新事物取而代之。所以,把精力放在理性与共同善上,别被短暂的情绪牵着走。

上下文

马可·奥勒留《沉思录》卷十二附近,提醒自己理性高于激情,并思考万物无常。

今天你做决定时,是凭一时情绪,还是先问:这符合理性与共同善吗?
