He was a 21-year-old in
blue jeans and Nikes, eager to laugh and eager to
please,
but fierce in his attention to
his duties. Every salt and pepper shaker was
exactly in its
place, not a bread crumb
or coffee spill was visible when Stevie got done
with the table.

史蒂维
21
岁，蓝色牛仔裤，耐克运动鞋，满面笑容，讨人喜爱，极端地敬业。他收拾
好一张餐桌后
，盐瓶和胡椒瓶归于原位，丝毫不差，桌面不见一点面包屑、一滴咖啡液。
6 Over time, we learned
that he lived with his mother, a widow who was
disabled after
repeated
surgeries
for
cancer.
They
lived
on
their
Social
Security
benefits
in
public
housing two miles
from the truck-stop. Their social worker, who
stopped to check on him
every so often,
admitted they had fallen between the cracks. Money
was tight, and what I
paid him was
probably the difference between them being able to
live together and Stevie
being sent to
a group home.

后来，我们得知史蒂维和母亲一起生活。他母亲是个寡妇，因
患癌症多次经历手术而
落下残疾。
母子俩靠社会保险金生活，<
/p>
住在离餐馆两英里以外的廉租房里。
社工人员偶尔登
门看望，
说他们母子生活着实艰辛贫困。
他们手头拮
据，
我所付的工资仅能保证母子俩相依
为命，史蒂维才不至于沦
落到被“集体之家”（为残障人士提供护理的机构）收容。

At
some
stage
or
the
other
in
our
lives,
we
experience
the
gnawing
pangs
of
an
emotion which defies
definition. It's a feeling that can only be felt
and not described. An
overwhelming joy
that comes together with its share of sadness.
Love.
2
在我们生命中的某个阶段，我们会经历某种难以名状的情感所带来的阵阵折磨。这种
情感只能体会，无法用语言描述。莫大的喜悦伴随着丝丝的伤感一同降临，这就是爱。
7 Love was a magnificent
building I built on the foundation of friendship.
It took time to
blossom. It took a lot
of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and
plenty of affection
to become what it
is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You
might say that I belong
to the
traditional school of romance. But in my opinion,
love needs to be nurtured. And it
has
to be distinguished from the intense but short-
lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.

<
/p>
我的爱情是在友谊这块地基上建起的高楼大厦。爱情经过旷日持久的培养才开花。我
和我的恋人相互理解、同甘共苦、相互关心，投入了丰富的感情，才使爱情发展到今天。爱
情意味着情投意合。你也许会说，我属于浪漫的传统派。但是，依我看，爱情需要培养。我<
/p>
们必须把爱情同强烈而短暂的激情或身体的愉悦区别开来。
6 Another classical view of
friendship can be found in the writings of Cicero,
an ancient
Roman statesman and orator.
His writings on ethics, the philosophy of religion
and natural
law
have
been
infuential.
According
to
Cicero
true
friendship
is
only
possible
between
good
men.
He
further
defines
good
as
whose
actions
and
lives
leave
no
question as to their
honor, purity, equity, and liberality; who are
free from greed, lust, and
violence;
and who have the courage of their
convictions.
men, based on virtue, does
offer material benefits, but it does not seek
them. Moreover,
just as in friendships
and relationships, those who possess any
superiority must regard
themselves
as
equals
of
those
who
are
less
fortunate,
so
these
latter
must
not
be
annoyed at being surpassed in genius,
fortune, or rank.

另一种传统的友谊观可以在古罗马
政治家、演说家西塞罗的著作里找到。西塞罗论述
伦理、
宗教哲
学和自然规律的作品影响广泛。
西塞罗认为，
真正的友谊只能在
好人之间发生。
他进而将“好人”定义为“那些行为和生活无损于自己的荣誉、
纯洁、
公平和开明的人；
那些摆
脱了贪婪、欲念和暴力的人；那些敢于依照自己的信念说话和做事的人。”好人之间建立的
这种友谊立足于美德，
它确实可以带来物质利益，
但
决不以追求物质利益为目标。
而且在处
理朋友关系和其它人际关
系时，
优越于他人的人必须平等地对待那些没那么幸运的人；
同
样，
后者也不能因为对方的天赋、财富、地位在自己之上而恼怒。

so hard.
There's a senior center that opened near here.
Dozens of elderly people come
there
every day. If you're a young man or young woman
and you have a skill, you are
asked to
come and teach it. Say you know computers. You
come there and teach them
computers.
You are very welcome there. And they are very
grateful. This is how you start
to get
respect, by offering something that you have.

米奇。

那么难。

yourself to your community around you,

而且现在能背诵：
奉献自己，关爱他人；奉献自己，为社区作贡献；奉献自己，营造
有目的、有意义的人生。

—
the
other third
of your life? Let's say you go home to your
family. What sort of family are you
raising? Will the children ever be
exposed to a reasonably penetrating idea at home?
We
all think of ourselves as citizens
of a great democracy. Democracies can exist,
however,
only as long as they remain
intellectually alive. Will you be presiding over a
family that
maintains some basic
contact with the great continuity of democratic
intellect? Will there
be a book in the
house? Will there be a painting a reasonably
sensitive man can look at
without
shuddering? Will your family be able to speak
English and to talk about an idea?
Will
the kids ever get to hear Bach?

“然而
在完成每天的工作之后，
你如何打发另外
8
个小时，
也就是你生命中的另外三分
之一的光阴？
比如，你回到家里，和家人待在一起。你养育什么样的子女？孩子们在
家里
能接触比较深邃的思想吗？我们都认为自己是一个伟大的民主国家的公民，
然而，
民主国家
只有在思想领域里充满活力方能
存在。
你作为一家之主，
能使这个家庭受到绵延不绝的民主
思想一些起码的影响吗？家里会有一本书吗？会挂一幅让审美能力尚好的人看了不至于战
栗的画吗？你的家人能表达自我、能交流思想吗？孩子们能有机会听到巴赫吗？”
