23. Theory and Practice
理论与实践
When talking about the importance of theory and practice, some people think theory is rather empty and abstract, so we should try to practice a lot to obtain our goals; while others maintain that practice is rather too blind and what we really need is to understand profound theories.
谈到有关理论和实践的关系，有人认为理论过于空洞和抽象，因此我们应该努力实践达到我们的目标；而还有人认为实践太过盲目，我们所需要的应该是高深的理论。
Both of these viewpoints have their own shortcomings. The former one only focuses on the importance of practice, but in fact, practice without the guidance of theory is just like a car without an engine. The latter one ignores the importance of practice. Paying no attention to the function of practice will only lead to empty words.
这两种观点分别有其缺点。前者只看到了实践的重要性，实际上，没有理论的实践就像没有引擎的汽车；后者则忽视了实践的重要，无视实践的作用，这将会导致空洞的言语。
What we should do is to systematically combine these two viewpoints. In our practice, we should try to study the related theory to make our practice easier. While studying theories, we should try to think in which situations we can put the theories into reality.
我们应该做的是把二者有机地结合起来。在我们实践过程中，应不断学习相关理论使实践更加易行；在学习理论时，我们应该思考在什么情况下，我们可以把该理论付诸实施。
