雙語(yǔ)智慧書(shū)·品性與智慧

2．品性與智慧
品性與智慧，是組成人類(lèi)才能的兩個(gè)要素。要走向幸福生活，缺少哪一個(gè)都將半途而廢。僅僅擁有智慧是不夠的，還要有好的品性。蠢人的不幸，在于沒(méi)有獲得適合他的地位、職業(yè)、鄰居與朋友圈子。


2．Character and intellect
Character and intellect: the two poles of our capacity; one without the other is but halfway to happiness. Intellect does not suffice, character is also needed. On the other hand, it is the fool's misfortune, to fail in obtaining the position, the employment, the neighbourhood, and the circle of friends that suit him.
