更新时间:2024-03-29 16:30:30

" o be or not to be"。 Outside the Bible, these six words are the most famous in all the literature of the world。They were spoken by Hamlet when he was thinking aloud," and they are the most famous words in Shakespeare because Hamlet was speaking not only for himself but for every thinking manand woman。 To be or not to be to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcely。

Six Famous Words  “生存还是死亡”

A philosopher once wanted to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionally。 He answered it by saying:"l think, therefore I am。"But the best definition of existence I ever saw was one written by another philosopher who said:"To be is to be in relations。"

If this is true, then the more relations a living thing has, the more it is alive。 To live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity of our relations。 Unfortunately we are so constituted that we get to love our routine。 But apart from our regular occupation how much are we alive? If you are interested only in your regular occupation, you are alive only to that extent。

So far as other things are concerned--poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports, unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs you are dead。Contrariwise, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest--even more, a new accomplishment you increase your power of life。 No one who is deeply interested in a large variety of subjects can remain unhappy, the real pessimist is the person who has lost interest。Bacon said that a man dies as often as he loses a friend。

But we gain new life by contacts, new friends。 What is supremely true of living objects is only less true of ideas, which are"also alive。 Where your thoughts are, there will your life be also。To be or not to be--to live intensely and richly, or merely to exist, that depends on ourselves。 Let us widen and intensify our relations。 While we live, let us live!
