未來簡單式

In Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Friedrich Nietzsche said, “you yourself will always be the worst

在《查拉圖斯特拉如是說》中，弗里德里希-尼采說："你自己將永遠是最糟糕的人。

情態助動詞 A2

enemy you can encounter; you yourself lie in wait for yourself in caves and forests.”

你能遇到的敵人；你自己在山洞和森林中為自己埋伏。"

過去簡單式

In my opinion, Nietzsche shared an important insight with us: we really are our own worst

在我看來，尼采與我們分享了一個重要的洞察力：我們真的是我們自己最糟糕的人。

So I'm gonna explore this idea through a dialogue.

所以我打算通過對話來探討這個想法。

--- At the end of his show, after everyone else

--- 在他的節目結束時，在其他人之後

had gone home, in the middle of a circus tent, under a sky lit by the moon and the stars,

在馬戲團的帳篷裡，在被月亮和星星照亮的天空下，他已經回家了。

an accomplished acrobat (A) was approached by a young student (S).

一個有成就的雜技演員（A）被一個年輕的學生（S）找去。

The young student, looking distraught, introduced himself to the acrobat before opening up.

這位年輕的學生看起來心神不寧，在開口之前向雜技演員介紹了自己。

S: I want to be an acrobat and walk the tightrope, but I'm afraid.

S：我想成為一個雜技演員，走鋼絲，但我害怕。

I'm afraid about making a living, and I'm afraid about what the people close to me will

我害怕謀生，我害怕我身邊的人將會怎樣。

They'll make me feel small and foolish for joining the circus, but I feel the wire calling

他們會讓我覺得加入馬戲團很渺小和愚蠢，但我感覺到鋼絲的召喚

A: You will always be your own worst enemy.

答：你將永遠是你自己最大的敵人。

I wanna be a great acrobat like you, but society doesn't value artists.

我想成為像你一樣偉大的雜技演員，但社會並不重視藝術家。

And on top of that, my family and friends will judge me for doing what they don't

除此之外，我的家人和朋友會因為我做了他們不願意做的事情而對我進行批評。

我覺得每個人都在拖我的後腿。

What's holding you back is your own fear.

You fear society not valuing you, and you fear the disapproval of your loved ones.

你害怕社會不重視你，你害怕你的親人不同意。

S: I guess you're right, but what can I do?

S：我想你是對的，但我能做什麼？

A: They're not the ones causing your fears.

答：他們不是造成你恐懼的人。

You think that if you become an acrobat, no one will pay.

你認為如果你成為一個雜技演員，沒有人會付錢。

And if no one pays you, you fear ending up on the streets.

如果沒有人付錢給你，你就擔心會流落街頭。

A: You think if you become an acrobat, your family and friends won't respect you.

答：你認為如果你成為一個雜技演員，你的家人和朋友就不會尊重你。

And I know I shouldn't feel this way, but I do.

我知道我不應該有這種感覺，但是我有。

A: There's no value in judging how you feel.

答：判斷你的感受沒有任何價值。

但是，讓我們繼續深入瞭解它。

答：那麼，你的思想從哪裡產生？

You just used thought to ask me a question.

你只是用思想來問我一個問題。

那麼這種想法的來源是什麼呢？

It was your desire to get clarification, wasn't it?

這是你想要得到澄清的願望，不是嗎？

A: So you agree, thought arises from desire.

答：所以你同意，思想產生於慾望。

You want society to value artists more because you believe that will help you get paid.

你希望社會更加重視藝術家，因為你相信這將有助於你獲得報酬。

A: And you want everyone to respect you for your career.

答：而且你希望每個人都尊重你的事業。

A: OK, now I need you to listen carefully.

答：好，現在我需要你仔細聽。

So your desire leads to thought, and your thought leads to fear.

所以你的慾望導致了思考，而你的思考導致了恐懼。

So if your desire goes away, the thought goes away, and if the thought goes away, so does

是以，如果你的慾望消失了，思想就會消失，如果思想消失了，也會消失。

And when the fear drops away, you get out of your own way.

而當恐懼消失後，你就會走出自己的路。

A: See that's the trap: you can't drop desire.

答：看，這就是陷阱：你不能放棄慾望。

Wanting to drop desire is itself a desire.

想放棄慾望本身就是一種慾望。

Fighting fire with fire only produces more fire.

以火攻火，只會產生更多的火。

But desires fall away on their own through understanding.

So let's look at your own understanding of the world.

所以我們來看看你自己對世界的理解。

A: So you believe that society doesn't value artists, and if society doesn't value artists,

答：所以你認為社會不重視藝術家，而如果社會不重視藝術家。

這意味著你永遠不會賺到任何錢。

If you sell water in a desert, does it matter what people think of you?

如果你在沙漠中賣水，人們對你的看法有什麼關係嗎？

A: So why does it matter if society values artists or not?

答：那麼，社會是否重視藝術家有什麼關係呢？

People value anything they perceive as an absolute necessity.

人們重視任何他們認為是絕對必要的東西。

If something is a necessity for you, you better believe it will be a necessity for someone

如果某些東西對你來說是必需品，你最好相信它對某人來說也是必需品。

And if the things you create are a necessity to someone, they will pay you for it.

如果你創造的東西對某人來說是一種必需品，他們會為此向你付費。

A: Now, you also believe that if you have everyone's respect, you'll be happy.

答：現在，你也相信，如果你得到大家的尊重，你就會幸福。

A: People respect you when you live according to their values.

答：當你按照他們的價值觀生活時，人們會尊重你。

But if you live according to someone else's values, you'll never respect yourself.

但如果你按照別人的價值觀生活，你就永遠不會尊重自己。

You'll become resentful, and you'll regret not living out your dreams.

你會變得怨恨，你會後悔沒有實現你的夢想。
