顾先生对于如何学好中国话的结论,感觉蛮有趣的
As the Chinese live a life of the heart, the Chinese language, I say, is also a language of the heart. Now it is a well—known fact that children and uneducated persons among foreigners in China learn Chinese very easily, much more so than grown—up and educated persons. What is the reason of this? The reason, I say, is because children and uneducated persons think and speak with the language of the heart, whereas educated men, especially men with the modern intellectual education of Europe, think and speak with the language of the head or intellect. In fact, the reason why educated foreigners find it so difficult to learn Chinese, is because they are too educated, too intellectually and scientifically educated. As it is said of the Kingdom of Heaven, so it may also be said of the Chinese language:— "Unless you become as little children, you cannot learn it."
