威廉·詹姆斯致学生
William James to His Students
威廉·詹姆斯（1842—1910），美国著名哲学家、心理学家，1842年1月11日生于美国纽约。他和查尔斯·桑德斯·皮尔斯一起创立了实用主义。威廉·詹姆斯曾在法国接受教育，专业是心理学，当时心理学和哲学之间的差别还不很大。回到美国后，他一直在哈佛大学教书，是美国最早的实验心理学家之一。他在此任教期间，班上的女生在一次大学礼仪性聚会上赠与他一棵杜鹃树，詹姆斯写此信答谢赠树的学生。
Dear young ladies，
I am deeply touched by your remembrance. It is the first time anyone ever treated me so kindly， so you may well believe that the impression on the heart of the lonely sufferer will be even more durable than the impression on your minds of all the teachings of Philosophy 2A. I now perceive one immense omission in my Psychology， the deepest principle of Human Nature is the craving to be appreciated， and I left it out altogether from the book， because I had never had it gratified till now. I fear you have let loose a demon in me， and that all my actions will now be for the sake of such rewards. However， I will try to be faithful to this one unique and beautiful azalea tree， the pride of my life and delight of my existence. Winter and summer will I tend and water it even with my tears. Mrs. James shall never go near it or touch it. If it dies， I will die too； and if I die， it shall be planted on my grave.
