书籍介绍
这不是一本让人安心的安慰之书，反而常常读来让人不安。米奇·阿尔博姆重返濒死的教授莫里身边，记录的却远不止一场告别——它更像一面镜子，照出活着的我们如何把时间挥霍在电影明星、名牌和永远追不上的下一辆车、下一套房上。莫里在病床上反复强调：来日无多和毫无价值不是同一回事，而多数人其实活得像半睡半醒。书中最具争议处，恰是它拒绝把衰老浪漫化，也拒绝把物质当作爱的替代品；它逼你承认，渴望被爱却用拥抱的替代品敷衍自己，是何等的自欺。它适合那些被效率与野心推着奔跑、却隐隐觉得哪里不对的人，不适合急着向上爬的年轻人。读完未必能给你答案，但很可能让你第一次认真追问：我到底在忙些什么？

精彩摘录
- "while I spent so many hours on things that meant absolutely nothing to me personally: movie stars, supermodels, the latest noise out of Princess Di or Madonna or John F. Kennedy, Jr. In a strange way, I envied the quality of Morrie’s time even as I lamented its diminishing supply. So many people wal"
- "1.来日无多和毫无价值不是同义词。 2.人生最重要的是如何施爱于人，并去接受爱。爱是唯一的理性行为。 3.当你觉得它可怕时，它才可怕。 4.我知道年轻也会是一种苦恼，所以别向我炫耀年轻的魅力。那些来找我的孩子都有他们的烦恼：矛盾、迷茫、不成熟、活着感到累，有的甚至想自杀...而且，年轻人还不够明智。他们对生活的理解很有限。衰老并不就是衰败，它是成熟。接近死亡并不一定是坏事，当你意识到这个事实后，它也有十分积极的一面，你会因此而活得更好。 5.无论我生活在哪里，我都会遇到一些对新的东西充满了占有欲的人，想拥有新的汽车，想拥有新的财产，想拥有新的玩具。然后沾沾自喜地向你炫耀：“猜我得到了什么？猜我"
- "For all that was happening to him,his voice was strong and inviting,and his mind was vibrating with a million thoughts.He was intent on proving that the word "dying" was not synonymous with "useless". When a collegue at Brandeis died suddenly of a heart attack,Morrie went to his funeral.He came home"
- ""All this emphasis on youth--I don't buy it,"he said."Listen,I know what a misery being young can be,so don't tell me it's so great.All these kids who came to me with their struggles,their stife,their feelings of inadequacy,their sense that life was miserable,so bad they wanted to kill themselves. ""
- ""It is impossible for the old not to envy the young.But the issue is to accept who you are and revel in that.This is your time to be in your thirties.I had my time to be in my thirties,and now is my time to be seventy-eight. "You have to find what's good and true and beautiful in your life as it is "
- ""Part of the problem,is that everyone is in such a hurry,"Morrie said."People haven't found meaning in their lives,so they're running all the time looking for it.They think the next car,the next house,the next job.Then they find those things are empty,too,and they keep running." Once you start runni"
- "别庸人自扰，一切都是空。 接受所有的感情.不让自己去感受、经历,你就永远超脱不了.因为你始终心存恐惧,你害怕痛苦,害怕悲伤,害怕爱必须承受的感情伤害.可你一旦投入进去,沉浸在感情的汪洋里,你就能充分的体验它,知道什么是痛苦,什么是悲伤,只有那时你才能说,好吧,我已经经历了、认识了这份感情,现在我需要超脱它. 不拒绝恐惧的进入,把它当作一件常穿的衬衫穿上,那么你就能对自己说：好吧,这仅仅是恐惧,我不必受它的支配,我能直面它。对孤独也一样,体会它的感受,让泪水流淌下来,细细的品味,但最后要能说：好吧,这是我孤独的一刻,我不怕感到孤独,现在我要把它弃之一旁,因为世界上还有其他的感情让我去体验。"
- "“无论我生活在哪里，我都会遇到一些对新的东西充满了占有欲的人，想拥有新的汽车，想拥有新的财产，想拥有新的玩具。然后沾沾自喜地向你炫耀：‘猜我得到了什么？猜我得到了什么？’” “你知道我对此是怎么解释的？这些人都渴望得到爱，但又得不到，于是就接受了这些替代品。他们乐于接受物质的东西，期望能得到类似于拥抱的感情回报，但这是行不通的。你无法用物质的东西去替代爱、善良、温柔或朋友间的亲情。” 他用一句诗来结束了这个话题：“相爱或者死亡。”他十分虔诚的相信这句箴言。"
用户评论
渐渐的就看不懂了后面
spiritual,refreshing and deep-inside, but not suitable for young people with great ambition. The youth should not live such a peaceful life as Morrie's. Going on and fighting for yourself is much more valuable.
超好读。很棒的原版书阅读体验。
Life is short, death will finally knock at our doors, still there is no such thing as "too late" in life~~
一向对温情励志类书籍没什么感觉
Overwhelming.
舍不得看完，舍不得morrie
Coach, we are Tuesday people
英语课的配套阅读，情节不错，但仅限平日里阅读的小书层面。
