“Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” — Leo Tolstoy
Somehow, this famous line is sometimes explained through an analogy to animal domestication.
To domesticate a wild animal, several conditions must all be satisfied; none can be missing. Once all are met, the animal can be domesticated. A family is similar: for it to be happy, multiple conditions must be fulfilled at the same time. When they are, the result tends to look alike—hence happy families are similar.
Unhappy families, however, fail to meet one or more of these conditions. Because the missing conditions differ, their unhappiness takes different forms.
In a nutshell: Happiness requires many things to go right at once; unhappiness can arise in many different ways.
”幸福的家庭都是一样的,不幸的家庭各有各的不幸。” 托尔斯泰
这句名言是根据驯化动物的科学原理而来。
要把野生的动物驯化为家养,几个条件,必需全部满足,缺一不可。一旦满足,都为家养。家庭一样 , 要幸福,必需同时满足几个条件,满足后都是幸福家庭,都满足这些条件,因此幸福家庭是一样的。
不幸福的家庭,就是其中一个或者多个条件不能满足,因此不幸福的家庭,不满足的条件各自不同,因此不同。
