KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。

意见的价值只能由它的使用者来衡量。具有讽刺意味的是,事实的价值只能由观察者来衡量。

It's too hard to present an opinion on something that's not true to who you are. It's much easier to base opinions and debates off of fact and your true heart on things. To me that just comes quite naturally, and it's also about being open to what the debate is about and hearing the other side.
对不真实的自己发表意见太难了。把你的观点和辩论建立在事实的基础上,把你的真心建立在事情的基础上,要容易得多。对我来说,这是很自然的,这也是关于开放的辩论是关于什么和听取对方的意见。
It is more true to say that our opinions depend upon our lives and habits, than to say that our lives and habits depend on our opinions.
