Which do you want? small questions or big question

(http://antbsd.twbbs.org/~ant/wordpress/?p=667, March 11th, 2007)

有時候遇到兩難的抉擇時,用這個問題問自己,也許是個不錯的辦法喔。

引用 汪丁丁教授的「Career Choice: small vs. big questions」一文,

從一個地方看到了下面關於哈佛大學經濟學家Martin Feldstein對他的一個學生職業選擇的建議,覺得不錯(下次如果有同學問我這個問題,我也會這樣說),轉貼在這裡:

Deepa Dhume, 21, who wrote her senior thesis under Feldstein this year, recalled asking his advice on whether to pursue an academic career or take her Harvard economics degree to Wall Street. Feldstein summed up the choice: ”Do you want to think about small questions or big questions?”

Dhume chose big. She returns to Harvard in the fall to work toward a PhD.

這句話真的太棒了。
