If I cannot have them both, I would choose the latter and forsake the former. Life is what I desire, and so is righteousness. If I cannot have them both, I would choose the latter and forsake the former. To be sure, life is desirable, but I will not stick to it discreditably if something more precious is to be desired. I hate death, but I will not shun it when there is something more abhorrent than it. To make life one’s greatest desire, what one would not resort to if only he could preserve it? To make death one’s greatest abhorrence, what one would not do if only he could avert it? Hence there is something not to be resorted to even for the preservation of life and something not to be done even for the evasion of death. Therefore, that one would prefer righteousness to life and abhor iniquity more than death is not only the case with sages, but is also true of everybody. What makes the difference is that the former would on no account lose this inclination. A morsel of food and a bowl of soup, however indispensable to his survival, would be rejected by a wanderer if given with indignities, and would be distained by a beggar if given with kicks. ” “Thousands of piculs of grain acquired as reward without paying regard to honor and justice—what good would they do to me? Just useful for building splendid houses, supporting wife and concubines, or for winning the gratitude of poor acquaintances? Previously I refused them, even setting death at defiance. Yet now I accept them for the sake of building splendid houses, supporting wife and concubines and winning the gratitude of poor acquaintances—could it be said to be reasonable? It is called being destitute of one’s inborn nature. ” 白话译文 鱼是我所想要的,熊掌也是我所想要的,如果这两种东西不能同时得到,我宁愿舍弃鱼而选取熊掌。生命也是我所想要的,道义也是我所想要的,如果这两种东西不能同时得到,我宁愿舍弃生命而选取道义。生命是我所喜爱的,但我所喜爱的还有胜过生命的东西,所以我不做苟且偷生的事;死亡是我所厌恶的,但我所厌恶的还有超过死亡 本文来源:https://www.wddqw.com/doc/c70c9969bd1e650e52ea551810a6f524ccbfcb69.html
