英國即將發生什麼事？大多數人都毫無頭緒！ (“Most People Have No Idea What’s About To Happen To The UK”)
- So if you have built a business that's worth millions of dollars and now you are leaving and taking that business, taking your employees, or perhaps you're simply taking the jobs and you will create these jobs in another country.
是以，如果你建立了一家價值數百萬美元的企業，現在你要離開，帶走這家企業，帶走你的員工，或者你只是帶走工作崗位，你將在另一個國家創造這些工作崗位。
- and now you're leaving and taking that business, taking your employees, or perhaps you're simply taking the jobs and you will create those jobs in another country, soon sometime in the future, the government will not be able to collect enough taxes in order to keep all of these programs.
很快，在未來的某個時候，政府將無法收取足夠的稅收來維持所有這些項目。
人生不是為了快樂！ (Life is Not About Being Happy)
- And judged on this basis, many of us have to admit, in the silence of our minds, that we're not really doing very well. There's so much that every year, and perhaps almost every day, comes along to spoil our ambitions. There's a power struggle at the office, there's a problem in our families, our friends feel superficial or disengaged, our anxieties don't abate and our relationships are scratchy or distant. Our difficulties generate a basic layer of misery, but then a secondary layer is swiftly added to it, caused by an underlying sense that our unhappiness represents a fundamental violation of life's true purpose. Not only are we unhappy, we are unhappy that we are unhappy, in the light of our tightly held belief in the possibility of a state of enduring satisfaction. We're both sad and crushed that we have failed at the single most important goal open to all sane and ambitious humans.
據此判斷，我們中的許多人不得不在沉默中承認，我們做得並不好。每年，也許幾乎每天，都會有很多事情來破壞我們的雄心壯志。辦公室裡的權力鬥爭，家庭中的問題，朋友們的膚淺或疏遠，我們的焦慮並沒有減輕，我們的人際關係也很微妙或疏遠。我們的困難產生了一層基本的痛苦，但隨後又迅速增加了第二層痛苦，這是由一種潛在的感覺造成的，即我們的不快樂從根本上違背了生活的真正目的。我們不僅不快樂，我們還因為自己不快樂而不快樂，因為我們堅信有可能獲得持久的滿足。我們既悲傷又崩潰，因為我們未能實現所有理智而有抱負的人所追求的最重要的目標
- There is so much that every year—and perhaps almost every day—comes along to spoil our ambitions.
在這種痛苦糾結的時刻，我們或許可以通過重塑我們的處境來獲得一些解脫。雖然我們可能無法克服負擔本身，但我們確實有能力改變這些負擔對我們的意義。我們也許不必把它們當作我們愚蠢或不適應的證明。它們可以是一種跡象，表明我們註定要過有趣的生活，而不是平靜的生活；我們的生活以高度的探索、心理理解和努力為標誌，而不是以穩定的確定性和平衡為標誌；我們在滿足感方面的欠缺，可以在洞察力和經驗方面得到彌補。
