塞内卡:塞内卡道德书简·摘录 84
塞内卡《塞内卡道德书简》· Seneca's Morals · 健康
There is not any mortal that lives free from the danger of it; for it makes even the heavy and the good-natured to be fierce and outrageous: it invades us like a pestilence, the lusty as well as the weak; and it is not either strength of body, or a good diet, that can secure us against it; nay, the most learned, and men otherwise of exemplary sobriety, are infected with it. It is so potent a passion that Socrates durst not trust himself with it. “Sirrah,” says he to his man, “now would I beat you, if I were not angry with you!” There is no age or sect of men that escapes it. Other vices take us one by one; but this, like an _epidemical contagion_, sweeps all: men, women, and children, princes and beggars, are carried away with it in shoals and troops as one man.

白话
没有谁能免于愤怒的危险。它能让沉稳温和的人变得暴烈,像瘟疫一样侵袭强壮者和虚弱者;身体好、饮食好都挡不住它,连最有学问、平时最克制的人也会被感染。苏格拉底都不敢信任自己:他对仆人说“要不是我正在气头上,我早就揍你了”。可见愤怒力量之大。其他恶习往往逐个击破,愤怒却像传染病,男女老少、君王乞丐,成批成片地卷走。所以别以为自己脾气好就安全,要时刻警惕。
上下文
塞涅卡用苏格拉底的故事说明愤怒的普遍性,强调无人能凭性格或学识免疫。

我是否因为自认“脾气好”而放松了对愤怒的警惕?最近有没有被意外激怒的时刻?
