塞内卡:塞内卡道德书简·摘录 9
塞内卡《塞内卡道德书简》· Seneca's Morals · 心性 · 领导 · 健康 · 财富
We may enlarge, indeed, or contract, according to the circumstances of time, place, or abilities; but above all things we must be sure to keep ourselves in action, for he that is slothful is dead even while he lives. Was there ever any state so desperate as that of Athens under the thirty tyrants—where it was capital to be honest, and the senate-house was turned into a college of hangmen? Never was any government so wretched and so hopeless; and yet Socrates at the same time preached _temperance_ to the _tyrants_, and courage to the rest, and afterwards died an eminent example of faith and resolution, and a sacrifice for the common good.

白话
核心是:人必须保持行动,懒惰等于活着的死人。行动可以按时间、地点和能力调整大小,但绝不能停止。塞内加举雅典三十僭主为例:当时诚实即死罪,元老院成了刑场,但苏格拉底仍向僭主宣讲节制,向其他人宣讲勇气,最后以死示范信念与决心,为公共善牺牲。这说明即使环境极端恶劣,个人仍可选择行动和坚守。做法是:不因外部限制而放弃努力,在力所能及处持续做正确的事。
上下文
塞内加在《道德书简》中讨论行动与美德,以雅典三十僭主时期的苏格拉底为典范。
