    前几年，我提出了“各美其美，美人之美，美美与共，天下大同”的设想，这是我的心愿。要想达到这样的境界并不容易。比如当今世界上许多发展中国家，历史上大多遭受过西方殖民主义的欺凌，这些国家的民众，由于受一种被扭曲的心理的影响，容易产生两种截然相反的倾向：一种是妄自菲薄，盲目崇拜西方；一种是闭关排外，甚至极端仇视西方。目前，这种仇视西方的状况似乎已经酝酿成一股社会潮流。从另一方面说，作为强势文明的发达国家，容易妄自尊大，热衷于搞“传教”，一股脑儿地推销自己的“文明”，其实这样做会蒙住自己的耳目，成了不了解世界大势的井底之蛙。在中国的历史上，也出现过“盲目崇拜”和“闭关排外”的现象。希望今天的中国学术界，能够彻底拋弃妄自菲薄、盲目崇拜西方或者妄自尊大、闭关排外的心理。

    中华文化经历了几千年，积聚了无数先人的聪明智慧和宝贵经验，我想我们今天尤其需要下大力气学习、研究和总结。面对今天这种“信息爆炸”、形形色色“异文化”纷至沓来的时代，我们需认真思考怎么办。全盘接受、盲目排斥都不是好的方法，我们应该用一种理智的、稳健的，不是轻率的、情绪化的心态来“欣赏”它。要知道，不论哪种文明，都不是完美无缺的，都有精华和糟粕，因此对涌进来的异文化我们既要“理解”，又要有所“选择”。

    为了人类能够生活在一个“和而不同”的世界上，从现在起就必须提倡在审美的、人文的层次上，在人们的社会活动中，树立起一个“美美与共”的文化心态，这是人们文化观念上的一场深刻大变革，它可能与当前世界上很多人习惯的思维模式和行为方式相抵触。在这场变革中，一定会因为不被理解而引起一些人的非议甚至抵制，特别是当触动到某些集团的利益的时候，可能还会受到猛烈的攻击。但是，当我们看到人类前进的步伐已经迈上全球化、信息化的道路；已经到了一个必须尽快解决全球化和人类不同文明如何相得益彰、共同繁荣的紧要关头，这些抵制和攻击又算得了什么。
