Description

美国总统特朗普是个大势利眼,喜欢夸耀自己钱多和娶俗气的女人。 弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫在《我是势利眼吗》一文中承认了自己的势利倾向,她与牛津大学政治哲学家以赛亚·伯林晤面后,写信给友人说:“我认为他是个吞火的小丑。”伍尔夫还用势利对付文坛对手,曾经攻击才华远超于她的詹姆斯·乔伊斯“毫无教养”。 普鲁斯特早年是一个彻头彻尾的大势利眼,晚年却变成一名z伟大的势利眼鉴别家和批评家。他认为势利“是对与性格无关之物的赞慕”,即对表象的过分重视。 诺贝尔文学奖得主索尔·贝娄喜欢到餐厅一类公共场所去试探自己的名气,如果没人认出他(这是常事),他还会有点失望。 安迪·沃霍尔一直都无比渴望成名,但他*不盲目。他对社会地位的一套体系有非常明确的认识,知道如何从曼哈顿广告和艺术界一点点积累时尚圈最强大的人脉资源。
