告青年书-第137章

  休息与娱乐是有区别的。真正的休息能使体力得到恢复。休息使我们摆脱日常的忧虑和事务，身心得到恢复，以新的活力重新履行人生的职责。反之，娱乐的目的乃是寻欢作乐，不加节制，耗费了人从事有用工作的精力，因此妨碍了人真正的成功。——《教育论》207页{MYP 362.1}[1]

告青年书-第137章

  There is a distinction between recreation and amusement. Recreation, when true to its name, re-creation, tends to strengthen and build up. Calling us aside from our ordinary cares and occupations, it affords refreshment for mind and body, and thus enables us to return with new vigor to the earnest work of life. Amusement, on the other hand, is sought for the sake of pleasure, and is often carried to excess; it absorbs the energies that are required for useful work, and thus proves a hindrance to life’s true success.—Education, 207.{MYP 362.1}[1]
