所有的人都曾经是孩子,不幸的是,其中记住这一点的并不多
——《小王子》

Poem


[唐]虞世南
垂緌饮清露,流响出疏桐。
居高声自远,非是藉秋风。

  这首小诗是咏蝉诗中的名篇,也是托物言志诗的代表。不起眼的蝉在这里是高洁傲岸,不畏流俗的代表,同样也是催人向上,不断前进的号角。

Excerpt

  SOCRATES: And surely, we also remember saying, don’t we, that to make their natures as excellent as possible right from the start, the rulers, male and female, should secretly arrange marriages by lot, to make sure that good men and bad ones e would each as a group be separately matched up with women like themselves? And we said that this arrangement wouldn’t create any animosity among them, because they’d believe that the marching was due to chance?


  SOCRATES: And do we also remember saying that the children of the good parents were to be brought up, while those of the bad ones were to be secretly handed on to another city? And that these children should be constantly watched as they grew up, so that the ones that turned out deserving might be taken back again and the ones they kept who did not turn out that way should change places with them?


  这是《蒂迈欧》19cd的两段话,也是苏格拉底对前一天演讲的回顾,与《理想国》中的观点也有共同性。这也是《理想国》中颇受争议的一种观点,这也是不是一种“社会达尔文主义”呢?

Comments

  深深地感觉到虽然这学期的学分少了一些,但是文本阅读的课都是十分神奇,甚至能够想象到他对自己知识水平和阅读能力的提升的。或许也就正是在这种不断阅读、思考、体会的过程之中,才能不断前进吧。那些速食性的新闻和名目繁多的活动,在一些零碎的时间做或许也就可以了。让自己沉淀下来思考,不要让思维成为别人思想的跑马场。这种努力,或许试从一本书的摘要,哲学论证的重构和同一事物观点的比较中所生发的。
