费被拿到打下去那么多次还不收手?但原因其实很简单:费爱的是网球,是竞技,而不是单纯的“赢”。这才是他真正的魅力所在。费是为网球所生,所以他不在乎输赢,更不在乎和拿到的比分。当然输了是不会好受的,和拿到的差距更难消受,但这些消极因素都无敌于他对网球的热爱。
另外,反复有人提到为何一个人才(甚至“智商低的”-非我的原话)拿到能打败天才费?我反复用Achilles的典故来解释这个现象:achilles是希腊神话中的勇士,所向披靡,但他有一个致命的弱点,就是他的后脚跟:“In Greek mythology, when Achilles was a baby, it was foretold that he would die young. To prevent his death, his mother Thetis took Achilles to the River Styx, which was supposed to offer powers of invulnerability, and dipped his body into the water. But as Thetis held Achilles by the heel, his heel was not washed over by the water of the magical river. Achilles grew up to be a man of war who survived many great battles. But one day, a poisonous arrow shot at him was lodged in his heel, killing him shortly after. ”(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achilles%27_heel?)
拿到总能打击费的弱点,就像那些能打中 Achilles的脚后跟的人。但尽管如此,能打中achilles 脚后跟的人并不等于他们就是Achilles.
