We are conditioned to look for justice in life and when it doesn't appear, we tend to feel anger, anxiety or frustration. Actually, it would be equally productive to search for the fountain of youth, or some such myth. The world is simply not put together that way. Robins eat worms. That's not fair to the worms. Spiders eat flies. That's not fair to the flies. Cougars kill coyotes. Coyotes kill badgers. Badgers kill mice. Mice kill bugs. Bugs…You have only to look at nature to realize there is no justice in the world. Tornadoes, floods, tidal waves, draughts are all unfair. It is a mythological concept, this justice business. The world and the people in it go on being unfair every day. You can choose to be happy or unhappy, but it has nothing to do with the lack of justice you see around you.

我們都習(xí)慣于在生活中尋找公平，當(dāng)事情不公平的時(shí)候，我們就容易生氣、焦慮或者是失望。事實(shí)上，這就等同于尋找青春的源頭，抑或是尋找某種神話。世界并不只是通過(guò)那樣的方式拼在一起的。知更鳥(niǎo)吃毛毛蟲(chóng)，這對(duì)毛毛蟲(chóng)是不公平的；蜘蛛吃蒼蠅，這對(duì)蒼蠅是不公平的；美洲獅殺死了叢林狼，叢林狼又殺死了獾，獾又殺死了老鼠，老鼠再殺死昆蟲(chóng)，昆蟲(chóng)再……你必須在看大自然的時(shí)候意識(shí)到在這世界上沒(méi)有公平存在。龍卷風(fēng)、洪水、潮汐、干旱，所有的都是不公平的。公平這種事情是一個(gè)虛構(gòu)的概念。這個(gè)世界以及在世界生活著的人們每天都在經(jīng)歷著不公平。你可以選擇快樂(lè)或者不快樂(lè)，但對(duì)于在你周?chē)�你所看到的不公平卻是無(wú)能為力。
