目的地：destination的用法和辨析

A compass will point you true north from where you're standing. But it's got no advice about the swamps and deserts and chasms that you'll encounter along the way. If in persuit of your destination, you plunge ahead, heedless of obstacles and achieve nothing more than to sink in a swamp. What's the use of knowing true north?

——Lincoln 

羅盤會告訴你北在哪裏，但是卻不能提醒你哪裏有沼澤，哪裏是沙漠。如果爲了到達你的目的地，你義無反顧地向前走，不顧障礙，最終卻只得到了沉沒於沼澤的下場。就算你知道了北在哪裏又有什麼用呢？

——《林肯》
