你们是用什么标准来确定一个病人制度化?
During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the director ..., "What is the criterion that defines a patient to be institutionalized?"
"Well..." said the director, "we fill up a bathtub, and we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask him to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket as it is larger than the spoon or the teacup."
"Noooooooo!" answered the director. "A normal person would pull the plug."
参观一所精神病院期间,参观者问主任……,“你们是用什么标准来确定一个病人制度化?”“嗯……”主任说,“我们把浴缸注满了水,然后提供一个茶匙,一个茶杯和一个水桶,并要求他把浴缸放下。”“哦,我明白了,”参观者说。”一个正常人会选择水桶,因为它比茶匙和茶杯大。”“不!”院长回答。”一个正常的人会放弃。”
