In fact, it is a farce to call any being virtuous whose virtues do not result from the exercise of its own reason.
事实上，如果一个人的美德不是由他自己的理性所产生的，那么把他称为有德之人就是一场闹剧。
A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT
给此刻的你，一点向前的力量。
关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。
Money can extinguish intrinsic motivation, diminish performance, crush creativity, encourage unethical behavior, foster short-term thinking, and become addictive.
金钱可以扼杀内在动机，降低绩效，扼杀创造力，鼓励不道德的行为，培养短期思维，并使人上瘾。
One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.
一个人可以选择回到安全或者向前成长。成长必须一次又一次地选择;恐惧必须一次又一次地克服。
