君子不器?何谓君子不器,站于少数人立场而不愿随波
Greek philosophy leaped on to heights unreached again, while Greek science limped behind. Our mordern danger is precisely oppsite; inductive data fall upon us from all sites, like the lava of Versuvius; we suffocate with uncoordinate facts; our minds are overwhelmed with sciences breeding and multiplying into specialistic chaos for want of synthesitc thought and a unifying philosophy.
We are all mere framents of what a man might be.
摘自威尔杜兰特所写的哲学的故事,90年代所写,我却看见了活生生的当今世界的现状,不可不说杜兰特的预见性。
有人总想着穿越,回唐朝做一诗人,回古希腊做一哲学家,其实不然,君子不器,与其做一哲学家,不如在那时候当个科学家,就如同现在这个社会这么缺少哲学家一样。
还是得继续读下去
