67. "Why aren't you coming home to serve
the new China, T. D.?“
"I don't want to have my brains
washed by others."
68. "Why aren't you coming home to serve
the new China, T. D.?“
As I didn't know how brains could
be washed, I did not at the time
find the idea very daunting.
"I don't want to have my brains
washed by others."
78. But the reason I accepted it was not so simple.
Now the Communists seemed to be doing that all my
friends and relatives in China urged me to come home
and not become a White Russian in the States.
79. Ever since my childhood or boyhood,
China was subjected to the perennial
humiliation of being invaded by the
Japanese and other foreign powers.
We didn't celebrate Thanksgiving
or Christmas but we always
commemorated the national
humiliation days.
80. Ever since my childhood or
boyhood, China was subjected to the
perennial humiliation of being invaded

powers.
So in other words, we were probably, to put simply, very
nationalistic.
We didn't celebrate Thanksgiving
or Christmas but we always
commemorated the national
humiliation days.
81. So now is a time to do something
for my nation and my people.
103. I have never regretted going back to China
because I didn't do anything wrong.
I was not to blame. Whatever happened cannot be
attributed to me. Whatever happened to my family
cannot be attributed to me, cannot be blamed on me.
104. So if I had to choose again, I would still
choose the same thing.
126. 三位知识分子，三种不同的省思
季羡林： 体制内的局限性省思，政权赋予的“国学
大师”的称号下，学术界失去了独立的力量。更甭说
对当权者起着一种监督，甚至批评的作用。
巫宁坤：从“desire to see strong and prosperous
China, also a free and democratic China, coming to
being”的美好愿望到发现中共实为“to urge the
intellectuals to change their class stand, their point of
view, their viewpoint and their method of thinking”彻
底的醒悟。
钱理群：从曾经的相信，到挣扎，再到忏悔，最终
在知识分子末路危机、信仰缺失的当代提出“我们还
能做什么？”之思考。
127. 对”知识分子“定义的重新审视
“士”在中国文化史上的地位：“士志于道”，规定了“士
是基本价值的维护者”，是一个承担文化使命的特殊
阶层。
西方学术界定义中的“知识分子”（intellectual）：社
会的良心，除了献身于专业工作以外，同时还必须
深切地关怀着国家、社会以至世界上一切有关公共
利害之事，而且这种关怀又必须超越于个人的私利
之上的。
So, 知识分子 or 知识人？？？
