مثل آب برای ماهی/ مثل هوا برای پرنده Explanation: . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 41 mins (2012-05-19 16:21:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And there is always some wistful remnant in us of that early wooing of wisdom. 'Life has meaning,' we feel with Browning -- 'to find its meaning is my meat and drink.' So much of our lives is meaningless, a self-canceling vacillation and futility; we strive with the chaos about us and within; but we would believe all the while that there is something vital and significant in us, could we but decipher our own souls. http://www.philosophicalsociety.com/What Philosophy Is.htm فکر می کنم می خواهد بگوید برای انسان مدرن یافتن معنای زندگی از یافتن نان شب هم واجب تر است. ضرورت یافتن معنای زندگی برایم همچون وجود آب برای ماهی / یا آزادی برای پرنده است. |
