# 02.箴言 [TOC=3,5] ## 2 Motto ## 箴言 It is pretty tragic to see that many solutions have already been known for centuries, but they keep getting overlooked. I chose the words of [John Locke](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Locke)\(1963\) as the motto for this text: 看到許多解決方案在幾個世紀前就已經為人所知，但卻一直被忽視，這是相當可悲的。我選擇[約翰·洛克](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Locke)（John Locke, 1963年）的話作為本書的箴言： > None of the things they are to learn, should ever be made a burthen to them, or impos'd on them as a task. Whatever is so propos'd, presently becomes irksome; the mind takes an aversion to it, though before it were a thing of delight or indifferency > > 兒童應學的事情，決不應該變成兒童的一種負擔，也不應當當做一種任務去加在他們身上。否則他們立刻便會討厭它；哪怕他們以前本來喜愛那件事，或者不愛也不憎，他們對他都會感到厭惡。
