There is something infantile in the presumption that somebody else has a responsibility to give your life meaning and point… The truly adult view, by contrast, is that our life is as meaningful, as full and as wonderful as we choose to make it.

  • -- Richard Dawkins 理查德·道金斯

如果认为别人有责任赋予你生命的意义和观点,那就太幼稚了……相反,真正的成人观点是,我们的生活是有意义的,是充实的,是精彩的,就像我们自己选择的那样。
