台湾籍旅美老师今天交给我们的句子是:
One of the things that separates confident from diffident people is their approach to history. Broadly-speaking, the unconfident believe that history is over; the confident trust that it's still in the process of being made – one day possibly by themselves.
自信的人和没自信的人之间的其中一个差别在于他们对于历史的看法:广泛地说,没自信的人相信历史已经是过去式;而自信的人,相信历史还是现在进行式,或许有一天他们自己能创造历史。
