塞内卡：塞内卡道德书简·摘录 7
塞内卡《塞内卡道德书简》· Seneca's Morals · 认知 · 健康 · 心性 · 哲学
Provided that we look to our consciences, no matter for opinion: let me deserve well, though I hear ill. The common people take stomach and audacity for the marks of magnanimity and honor; and if a man be soft and modest, they look upon him as an easy fop; but when they come once to observe the dignity of his mind in the equality and firmness of his actions; and that his external quiet is founded upon an internal peace, the very same people who have him in esteem and admiration; for there is no man but approves of virtue, though but few pursue it; we see where it is, but we dare not venture to come at it: and the reason is, we overvalue that which we must quit to obtain it.

白话
只要我们问心无愧，就不必在乎别人的看法；让我配得上好名声，即使听到恶评。普通人把胆量和傲慢当作宽宏大量和荣誉的标志；如果一个人温和谦逊，他们就觉得他是个软蛋。但一旦他们观察到一个人行动一致而坚定，显出心灵的尊严，并且外在的平静源于内在的安宁，那些原本轻视他的人也会转而尊敬和钦佩他。因为没有人不认可美德，只是很少有人去追求；我们看见美德在哪里，却不敢冒险去接近它，原因是我们太看重为了得到它必须放弃的东西。
上下文
塞内加是古罗马斯多葛派哲学家，他讨论公众意见与内在美德之间的冲突，鼓励人追求真正的善。
