Seek first to understand, then to be understood.Most people do not listen with the intent to understand: they listen with the intent to reply. They’re filtering everything through their own paradigms, reading their autobiography into other people’s lives.

  • -- Stephen R. Covey 科维

先寻求理解,再寻求被理解。大多数人倾听的目的不是为了理解,而是为了回应。他们通过自己的范例来过滤一切,把自己的自传读给别人听。
