第57章 关于成就和梦想

On Achievements and Dreams

It sometimes seems that intense desire creates not only its own opportunities, but its own talents.

We feel free when we escape — even if it be but from the frying pan to the fire.

There would be no society if living together depended upon understanding each other.

The only way to predict the future is to have power to shape the future.

No matter what our achievements might be, we think well of ourselves only in rare moments. We need people to bear witness against our inner judge, who keeps look on our shortcomings and transgressions. We need people to convince us that we are not as bad as we think we are.

You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he uses to frighten you.

The leader has to be practical and a realist, yet must talk the language of the visionary and the idealist.

In a time of drastic change it is the learners who inherit the future. The learned usually find themselves equipped to live in a world that no longer exists.

We do not really feel grateful toward those who make our dreams come true; they ruin our dreams.

We need our own dreams.

有时,强烈的渴望不仅会给你创造机会,还会激发你的才智。

我们逃避时,总感到获得了自由——即使是从一个糟糕的环境换到另一个更糟糕的环境。

如果生活在一起的人们无法相互理解,社会就不会存在。

预测未来的唯一方法是,用自己的力量开创未来。

不论我们有怎样的成就,真正为自己骄傲的时刻却很少。我们能看到自己的缺点和错误,但仍需要别人给我们作出评判;我们需要得到别人的肯定——我们并没有想象的那么糟糕。

通过观察对手恐吓你的手段,你可以发现他最害怕什么。

领导者必须是务实家和现实主义者,但他发表演说则必须像个空想家和理想主义者。

时代发生巨变时,只有学习者才能继承未来,他们通常会发现自己全副武装地生活在前所未有的世界。

我们并不会真正感激那些使我们梦想成真的人,因为是他们打碎了我们的美梦。

我们需要自己的梦想。
