養老孟司×佐野めぐみ──異世代対談から学ぶ、自分らしい生き方。

> 養老： 一番怖いのは、人間には「できることをやってしまう」という、悪い癖があることです。「できることをやらない」という成熟に達することが、本当に難しい。子育てだってそう。つい手伝いたくなるけれど、親は、やらずに見守ることが大切なのです。

> 佐野： 私の場合は、外部からの情報や学びを吸収したあと、自分の考えだけで反芻する時間をつくっています。自分だけのために自由に考えを書いている日記を読み返したり、瞑想したり。外部をいったん遮断して、自分がどこにいて何をしているかを客観的に捉え、流されないようにしています。

「Nations and Peace」
1000語ぐらいの英語の単語だけを使って、世平を平和にできるシテムを考えるための本です。 「絵で見る英語」というクラシックの教科書(地味だけどクラシックだから!)や ( 。 著作権が切れただろうけど、Archive.orgで自由にダウンロードできる。UkraineやYemenなどなどの戦争を考えるために役立つかもしれない。 ロシアがやったら悪いけど、米国やフランスやイギリスなど人の港をのってとったり(ジブチと日本の海外軍基地!？!？)、人を空爆したりし て もいいことないでしょう。 あいうことだれがやってもだめだろう。
