Only when you care too much about other people’s views and opinions will you unceasingly look for their recognition.

太在意別人的視線和評價，

才會不斷尋求別人的認可。

It’s the pursuit for recognition that throttles freedom.?

對認可的追求，

才扼殺了自由。

You choose an unfree way of life because you don’t want to be detested by anybody.

由于不想被任何人討厭，

才選擇了不自由的生活方式。

In other words, freedom is to no longer look for recognition.

換言之，

自由就是不再尋求認可。
