"友谊是不必要的,就像哲学,就像艺术……它没有生存价值;反而它是那些给生存赋予价值的东西之一。"
— C. S. Lewis
Simplified Meaning:
Friendship, like things such as art and philosophy, is not something we absolutely need to stay alive. We don't need it to eat, drink, or have shelter. However, friendship makes life more enjoyable and fulfilling. For example, imagine living on a deserted island. You could find food and water to survive, but without friends, it would be a lonely and sad existence. Having friends brings happiness, helps us feel connected, and adds meaning to our lives. So while it's not essential for survival, friendship makes surviving worthwhile by adding joy and richness to our everyday experiences.
