普鲁塔克:希腊罗马名人传·摘录 117

普鲁塔克《希腊罗马名人传》· Plutarch's Lives · 人性 · 健康 · 领导

Caius Gracchus, at first, either for fear of his brother's enemies, or designing to render them more odious to the people, absented himself from the public assemblies, and lived quietly in his own house, as if he were not only reduced for the present to live unambitiously, but was disposed in general to pass his life in inaction. And some, indeed, went so far as to say that he disliked his brother's measures, and had wholly abandoned the defense of them. However, he was now but very young, being not so old as Tiberius by nine years; and he was not yet thirty when he was slain.

白话

盖约·格拉古起初要么是害怕他兄弟的敌人,要么是想让他们更招人恨,所以不出席公共集会,安静地待在家里,仿佛他不仅目前不追求野心,而且总体上打算无所作为。有些人甚至说他不喜欢他兄弟的措施,完全放弃了辩护。然而,他当时还很年轻,比提比略小九岁,死时还不到三十岁。这说明,在政治风波中,暂时的隐退可能是策略,也可能是恐惧,需要结合年龄和处境来理解。

今日一问

当你面对亲人的失败时,是选择隐退还是继续抗争?为什么?
