摘　　要：我看英奇教长一直在哀叹自己没能生活在两代人之前。他似乎认为,那时的世界更加令人向往,而自那以后,世界就一直在走下坡路,在如今这个堕落的时代,我们唯一能聊以自慰的念头就是自己很快就会摆脱这个时代。暂且假设五六十年前的世界更能令人幸福,英奇教长生活在那里是否一定会比在当今世界更幸福呢?对此我存疑。好在衡量个人的幸福并不依靠外部环境。Isee that Dean Inge^(1)has been lament-ing that he did not live a couple of generations ago.He seems to think that the world was a much more desir-able place then,that it has been going to the dogs^(2)ever since,and that the only comfortable thought that we can cultivate in this degenerate time is that we shall soon be out of it.
