關於我自己

我的相片
在時代夾縫中成長,經歷過難以想像的艱辛歲月,見證了半世紀的風雲,進入過色彩絢爛的古代文化世界,遨遊過西方廣闊的思想天地,宇宙六合,俱在心靈重現宏偉的圖景。一生堅守的信念,源自內心深處:確信愛與自由,比一切重要。自由,是精神超越的必要條件。愛,不論愛人與被愛,生命才顯示色彩。沒有愛與自由,漆黑一片,生不如死。一生未能忘懷的,是托爾斯泰的《戰爭與和平》。一生的摯愛,永遠埋在心底。一生追求的,是天上的雲彩。 Living in continuously changing times, I have been through a bitter period of life. I have seen the changes that went through in this century. I have entered into the magnificent world of Chinese Classic and Literature, and I have traveled through the plains of the West in my heart, this beauty is once again reborn. My principles that I bear in mind every moment comes from within my heart: the power of love and freedom are most important and towers over the other things in life. Freedom is state of mind which we all have to overcome. Love - no matter if you are being love or in love, the world seems much brighter, happier. Without love and freedom, life would be like blackness, living as though dead. One of life's most memorable moments was when I read Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace. The person I love most in this world would always be there, deep down in my heart. Chasing after those moments in life, is like chasing the clouds that drift across our skies.

梁實秋的情和理

梁實秋和吳宓是同門,在哈佛大學受教於新人文主義大師 Irving Babbitt (1865-1933), 漢名白璧德。兩人對師說一生向慕,身體力行,徘徊於情感與理性之間,以理馭情,擇善固執,以故兩人的感情世界非淺薄兒女所能理 解。而世亦罕知梁、吳同門。不知此關係,何足以論二十世紀之中國學術與文學!時聞淺學小兒以梁實秋為博碩士論文之對象,而於人世無情,更動輒附「勢」,無 理可言,梁公遭厄矣。睹今時議論梁實秋之論著,俱腐臭難當。二十世紀之中國文學,何易言哉!
新人文主義刻意去除政治的界限,從自然的生活理解人類文化的整存意義,尊重各種文化,主張在自然的狀態下互補共榮,是在十九世界西方帝國主義至盛期的自我文化省思。
在今日全球生存環境瀕臨毀滅的時刻,新人文主義式的思考與行動,已經刻不容緩。愛身邊的人,也應該同時愛世界。閱讀吳宓和梁實秋,不是為了消磨歲月。懂得去愛,識得思考,心存高尚的情志,自然領會生命的意義。面對現狀,已經不容許沉醉於自私自利的生活世界了。
