One interesting paragraph from
Do It! Let's Get Off Our Buts P419
"One way to obtain a greater inner silence is to maintain an outer silence.
You need not have --or give--an opinion on every subject under the sun.
'One of the lessons of history,' wrote historian Will Durant,
'is that nothing is often a good thing to do, and always a clever thing to say.'
For those who prefer the scientific formula rather than the historical perspective,
we present Albert Einstein:
'If A is success in life, then A equals X plus Y plus Z.
Work is X, Y is play and Z is keeping your mouth shut.'"
這本書(Do It! Let's Get Off Our Buts)第149頁的這一段很有趣!
『獲得內心平靜的一個有效方法就是
維持外在的安靜。
你不須要對發生的每件事情發表你的意見。
歷史學家Will Durant說過:『歷史給我們的教訓之一就是:
什麼都不做往往是件好事,而什麼都不說則是聰明的說法。』
對於喜愛科學程式甚於歷史見解的人,
來聽聽愛因斯坦怎麼說:
『如果A代表生命中的成就,
那它會等於X加Y加Z。X是工作,Y是玩樂,
Z是閉上你的嘴巴。』
