我们比过去任何时代掌握更多资源,创造前所未有的现代文明,但与此同时,我们也更焦虑、更缺少安全感、更患得患失。或许真如这句:“only thing We Have to Fear is Fear itself”——记得不明出处的一则笑话:县太爷爱画虎,却画得总是像猫,他索性禁止衙役和家丁说“猫”字,违者重打,府中上下唯独聪明的师爷躲过。一次县太爷问他:百姓最怕什么?师爷回答:百姓怕皇帝,皇帝怕天、天怕云、云怕风、风怕墙、墙怕老鼠,老鼠怕……您画里的东西!每个人都有害怕的东西,或远或近,或大或小,正如上帝造人的时候留下的软肋一样。
We have more resources than ever before to create an unprecedented modern civilization. At the same time, however, we are even more anxious, insecure and even more vulnerable. Perhaps this sentence: “Only thing We Have to Fear is Fear itself” - remember a joke of unknown origin: County magistrate love painting tiger, but always painted like a cat, he simply ban runners and Jia Ding said “Cat ” word, offenders heavy fight, Fuchu up and down only clever teacher escaped. A county magistrate asked him: What are the people most afraid? Master answer: people afraid of the emperor, the emperor afraid of days, days afraid of the cloud, cloud afraid of the wind, wind afraid of the wall, afraid of the wall mice, mice fear ... ... Everything that is scared, far or near, large or small, is just like the soft underbelly God created.
