As the traveler who has once been from home is wiser than he who has never left his own doorstep, so a knowledge of one other culture should sharpen our ability to scrutinize more steadily, to appreciate more lovingly, our own.

  • -- Margaret Mead 玛格丽特·米德

正如曾经离开家的旅行者比从未离开过自己家的人更聪明一样,对另一种文化的了解应该提高我们更坚定地审视自己的能力,更深情地欣赏自己的文化。
