第 59 頁 - The world is so full of a number of things, I 'm sure we should all be as happy as kings.
第 63 頁 - Men are disturbed not by things, but by the views which they take of things. Thus death is nothing terrible, else it would have appeared so to Socrates. But the terror consists in our notion of death, that it is terrible. When, therefore, we are hindered, or disturbed, or grieved let us never impute it to others, but to ourselves; that is, to our own views.
第 v 頁 - Until philosophers are kings, or the kings and princes of this world have the spirit and power of philosophy, and political greatness and wisdom meet in one, and those commoner natures who pursue either to the exclusion of the other are compelled to stand aside, cities will never have rest from their evils, — no, nor the human race...
第 62 頁 - Everything has two handles : one by which it may be borne ; another by which it cannot. If your brother acts unjustly, do not lay hold on the affair by the handle of his injustice ; for by that it cannot be borne : but rather by the opposite, that he is your brother, that he was brought up with you ; and thus you will lay hold on it as it is to be borne.
第 67 頁 - Platonic type in mind when she defined a philosopher as a man up in a balloon, with his family and friends having hold of the ropes, trying to pull him down to earth. A good deal that passes for religion is this Neoplatonism masquerading in Christian dress. All such hymns as
第 54 頁 - THE CELESTIAL SURGEON IF I have faltered more or less In my great task of happiness; If I have moved among my race And shown no glorious morning face ; If beams from happy human eyes Have moved me not ; if morning skies, Books, and my food, and summer rain Knocked on my sullen heart in vain : — Lord, thy most pointed pleasure take And stab my spirit broad awake ; Or, Lord, if too obdurate I, Choose thou, before that spirit die, A piercing pain, a killing sin, And to my dead heart run them in...
第 53 頁 - Take into your life as many simple, natural pleasures as possible." The Stoic says : " Keep out of your mind all causes of anxiety and grief." The Platonist says : " Lift up your soul above the dust and drudgery of daily life, into the pure atmosphere of the perfect and the good.
第 71 頁 - For still the Lord is Lord of might ; In deeds, in deeds, he takes delight ; The plough, the spear, the laden barks, The field, the founded city, marks ; He marks the smiler of the streets, The singer upon garden seats ; He sees the climber in the rocks : To him, the shepherd folds his flocks. For those he loves that underprop With daily virtues Heaven's top, And bear the falling sky with ease, Unfrowning caryatides. Those he approves that ply the trade, That rock the child, that wed the maid, That...
第 50 頁 - I have had to employ 49 teachers every year, and to recommend teachers to others. I have seen many succeed, and some fail. But I have never seen a success that could be accounted for by scholarship and training alone. I have never seen a failure that I could not account for on other grounds. What is it, then, that makes one teacher popular, successful, wanted in a dozen different places; and another, equally well trained, equally experienced, a dismal failure where he is, and wanted nowhere else...
第 53 頁 - Organize your life by clear conception of the end for which you are living, seek diligently all means that further this end, and rigidly exclude all that would hinder it or distract you from it." The Christian says : " Enlarge your spirit to include the interest and aims of all the persons whom your life in any way affects.
