塞内卡:塞内卡道德书简·摘录 77

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

Another instance of anger suppressed, we have in Harpagus, who was commanded to expose Cyrus upon a mountain. But the child was preserved; which, when Astyages came afterwards to understand, he invited Harpagus to a dish of meat; and when he had eaten his fill, he told him it was a piece of his son, and asked him how he liked the seasoning. “Whatever pleases your Majesty,” says Harpagus, “must please me:” and he made no more words of it. It is most certain, that we might govern our anger if we would; for the same thing that galls us at home gives us no offence at all abroad; and what is the reason of it, but that we are patient in one place, and froward in another?

白话

塞涅卡讲述哈尔帕古斯的故事:他被命令遗弃婴儿居鲁士,但孩子被救。国王知道后,竟杀了他儿子做成菜给他吃,并问他味道如何。哈尔帕古斯回答:“陛下喜欢的,我都喜欢。”塞涅卡以此说明,人若愿意,就能控制愤怒。同样的事,在家发生我们会生气,在外却不在意,区别只在于我们是否选择忍耐。因此,控制愤怒的关键在于有意识地选择宽容,而不是放任情绪。

上下文

塞涅卡在《论愤怒》中引用波斯宫廷故事,说明即使面对极端挑衅,人也能选择克制。
