我的世界观

THE WORLD AS I SEE IT

要追究一个人自己或一切生物生存的意义或目的，从客观的观点来看，我总觉得这是荒谬的。可是每个人都有一些理想，这些理想决定着他的努力和判断的方向。从这个意义上说，我从来都不把安逸和享乐看做是生活本身的目的——我把这种伦理基础叫作猪栏的理想。那些照亮我的道路，并且不断地给予我新的勇气、让我愉快地正视生活的理想，是善、美和真。

To inquire after the meaning or object of one＇s own existence or that of all creatures has always seemed to me absurd from an objective point of view. And yet everybody has certain ideals which determine the direction of his endeavors and his judgments. In this sense I have never looked upon ease and happiness as ends in themselves-this ethical basis I call the ideal of a pigsty. The ideals which have lighted my way,and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully,have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth. Without the sense of kinship with men of like mind ,without the occupation with the objective world, the eternally unattainable in the field of art and scientific endeavors, life would have seemed to me empty. The trite objects of human efforts-possessions ,outward success, luxury-have always seemed to me contemptible.
