A person unlearns arrogance when he knows he is always among worthy human beings; being alone fosters presumption. Young people are arrogant because they always associate with their own peers, those who are all really nothing but who would like to be very important.

  • -- Friedrich Nietzsche 弗里德里希·尼采

当一个人知道自己总是和有价值的人在一起时,他就会忘记傲慢;独处助长傲慢。年轻人是傲慢的,因为他们总是与自己的同龄人交往,这些人真的什么都不是,只是想成为非常重要的人。
