这个对于电脑和诗人的比喻代表了我对于社会发展的观点:我们不仅需要大力推进智力发展,而且还要支持和培养情感与精神能力。我们非常需要在它们之间达到平衡——高科技与高情感之间的平衡。这个世界的科技水平越发达,我们就越需要艺术家和诗人。
This metaphor for computers and poets represents my view on social development: we need to not only vigorously promote intellectual development, but also support and cultivate emotional and spiritual abilities. We really need to balance them - the balance between high technology and high emotion. The more advanced the technology in the world, the more we need artists and poets.
今年年初,有一次我在波士顿洛根机场(Boston’s Logan Airpor)乘飞机。由于飞机晚点造成了航班延误,我们这群同病相怜的乘客只好坐下来等待。我的对面坐的是一家人:年轻的父母和他们的两个孩子。他们很少说话,至少那位年轻的父亲是这样的,他看起来极度不耐烦。突然,他的手机响了起来。他立刻直起身来,一下来了精神,接电话的声音十分响亮:“你好,你好。”
