The human mind is designed to seek out and find evidence that confirms what it already believes.
人類的心靈被設(shè)計(jì)來尋找并發(fā)現(xiàn)證實(shí)其已有信念的證據(jù)。
You can't change your elephant by direct force, but you can train it over time.
你不能通過直接的力量改變你的大象，但你可以隨著時(shí)間的推移訓(xùn)練它。
The most important principle of positive psychology is that other people matter.
積極心理學(xué)最重要的原則是：他人很重要。
People are mostly shaped by their genes and their environment, but within those constraints, they have some freedom to choose their own path.
人大多由基因和環(huán)境塑造，但在這些限制之內(nèi)，他們有一定的自由選擇自己的道路。
The elephant is where the action is. The rider is there to serve the elephant.
大象才是行動(dòng)的所在。騎手的存在是為了服務(wù)大象。
We are all self-righteous hypocrites.
我們都是自以為是的偽君子。
Morality binds and blinds. It binds us into ideological teams that fight each other as though the fate of the world depended on our side winning each battle. It blinds us to the fact that each team is composed of good people who have something important to say.
道德既束縛又蒙蔽。它將我們束縛在意識(shí)形態(tài)團(tuán)隊(duì)中，彼此爭斗，仿佛世界的命運(yùn)取決于我們一方贏得每一場戰(zhàn)斗。它使我們看不到每個(gè)團(tuán)隊(duì)都是由有重要意見的好人組成的事實(shí)。
The human mind is a story processor, not a logic processor.
人類的心靈是一個(gè)故事處理器，而不是邏輯處理器。
Happiness comes from between. It is not something that you can find, acquire, or achieve directly. You have to get the conditions right and then wait.
幸福來自之間。它不是你可以直接找到、獲得或?qū)崿F(xiàn)的東西。你必須創(chuàng)造合適的條件，然后等待。
The mind is divided into parts that sometimes conflict. Like a rider on the back of an elephant, the conscious, reasoning part of the mind has only limited control over the automatic, emotional part.
心靈分為有時(shí)會(huì)相互沖突的部分。就像騎在大象背上的騎手，意識(shí)、推理的心靈部分對(duì)自動(dòng)、情感的部分只有有限的控制。
