塞内卡:塞内卡道德书简·摘录 36

塞内卡《塞内卡道德书简》· Seneca's Morals · 财富 · 健康 · 认知 · 心性

It is an error to attribute either _good_ or _ill_ to _Fortune_; but the _matter_ of it we may; and we ourselves are the occasion of it, being in effect the artificers of our own happiness or misery: for the mind is above fortune; if that be evil, it makes everything else so too; but if it be right and sincere, it corrects what is wrong, and mollifies what is hard, with modesty and courage. There is a great difference among those that the world calls wise men. Some take up private resolutions of opposing Fortune, but they cannot go through with them; for they are either dazzled with splendor on the one hand, or affrighted with terrors on the other; but there are others that will close and grapple with Fortune, and still come off victorious.

白话

把好事或坏事都归给命运,是错的。命运只提供材料,怎么用取决于我们自己,我们其实是自己幸福或痛苦的制造者。因为心灵高于命运:心若坏了,会把一切都变坏;心若端正真诚,就能用谦逊和勇气纠正错误、软化艰难。世上所谓聪明人差别很大:有人想对抗命运,却半途而废,因为被富贵晃花眼或被恐惧吓住;另一些人则敢和命运正面交手,而且总能赢。做法是:别把结果推给运气,先修自己的心,再谈应对。

上下文
