We are ashamed to seem evasive in the presence of a straightforward man, cowardly in the presence of a brave one, gross in the eyes of a refined one, and so on. We always imagine, and in imagining share, the judgments of the other mind.

  • -- Charles Horton Cooley 查尔斯·霍顿·库利

在一个正直的人面前,我们羞于躲闪;在一个勇敢的人面前,我们羞于胆怯;我们总是想象,并且在想象中分享他人的判断。
