老子和华兹华斯在人类文明进程的历史阶段上，从至高无上的“理性”或从凌驾一切的“科学”之下，试图恢复人的本初天性，不约而同地把婴孩作为人生的最佳状态和最高的人格理想。尽管二者连接着不同的文化背景与民族思维方式，但他们于不同时空中，在对既有价值体系普遍怀疑的前提下，作出了同样理想化的选择，具有强烈的反叛意识与探索精神。这看似荒谬与倒退的背后，实质上是被忽视了的对人类摆脱困境可能性前景的构想。由此反映的这样一种返始归根心态和精神家园意识，以及所确立的人与自然的亲和关系，对今天面临“文明困境”的人类来说更富有拯救色彩
Lao Tzu and Wordsworth tried to restore human instinct at the historical stage of the process of human civilization from supreme “reason” or from overriding “science,” and invariably regarded it as the best life in life And the highest personality ideal. Although they are connected with different cultural backgrounds and nationalistic ways of thinking, they have made the same idealistic choices in different time and space under the general suspicion of the existing value system, with a strong sense of rebellion and exploration. Behind this seemingly absurd and retrogressive view is in essence a neglected conception of the prospect of mankind’s exasperation. The return to such a sense of recuperation and spiritual homeland and the established affinity between man and nature thus reflected are even more salvation for those humans facing a “civilized predicament” today
