Rather, starting with ancient Greece, I reread the Western philosophers. I worked hard at standing in their shoes. The process was very difficult, for I discovered that things which in the past I had been educated to accept as true and reasonable gradually became petty and untrustworthy.
而是從古希臘開始重新閱讀西方哲學，我努力去站在西方大師們的觀點，過程相當痛苦，因為我發現過去受的教育、以為是合理、值得信賴的事，慢慢變得瑣碎了。
