YOUTH

By Samuel Ullman 塞繆爾·厄爾曼

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not amatter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of thewill, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is thefreshness of the deep springs of life.

Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often existsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by anumber of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles thesoul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the springback to st.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being』s heart the lure ofwonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what』s next and the joy ofthe game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is awireless
station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer,courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20,but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, thereis hope you may die young at 80.

Transforming Obstacles into Benefits

A group of frogs was traveling through the woods and two of themfell into a deep pit. Immediately, all the other frogs in the groupgathered around the pit and watched as the imprisoned frogs tried tojump out. The frogs on top could see that the pit was very deep and itlooked as if there was no way out, so they started yelling at the twofrogs in the pit to give up. "The pit is too deep. You're as good asdead," the chorus of frogs said. When the trapped frogs kept trying,the crowd yelled louder, "Give up. You're as good as dead." After awhile, one of the exhausted frogs took heed to what the others weresaying, and fell down and died.

But amazingly, the second frog kept jumping as hard as she coulddespite the negative remarks of those that kept yelling at her toaccept the inevitable and just die. Finally, with one valiant leap, shemade it out of the pit!

This amazing result occurred because the second frog was deaf annable to hear what the others had been saying. She thought they hadbeen cheering her on the entire time they were yelling! What she hadmistakenly perceived as encouragement inspired her to try harder andsucceed against all odds. And that made all the difference!

With a positive mindset, and being deaf to others' opinions, thesecond frog made use of such negativity to overcome obstacles and reachher goals by using it as encouragement, instead of being influenced byothers like the first frog, who failed to develop her potential tostrive for survival. Thus, when we surmount others' criticism, ridiculeor cynical comments, we can do anything we set our minds to, just asthe second frog did. But, if we are not deaf like this frog, who couldnot be influenced by others e to a physical condition, we need the Wisdom to guide us to the proper way, so as not to be blindly guided byworldly opinion.

Right Beside You 身邊總有你

The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the young woman with the white cane made her way1 carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and then, using her hands to feel the location of the seats, settled in to one. She placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.
It had been a year since Susan, thirty-four, became blind. As the result of a medical accident she was sightless, suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. All she had to cling to2 was her husband Mark.
Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and he became determined to use every means possible to help his wife.
Finally, Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too frightened to get around the city by herself. Mark volunteered to ride the bus with Susan each morning and evening until she got the hang of3 it. And that is exactly what happened.
For two weeks, Mark, military uniform and all, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to adapt to4 her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat.
Each morning they made the journey together, and Mark would take a taxi back to his office. Although that meant he had to travel through the city and the routine was costly and exhausting, Mark knew it was only a matter of① time before Susan would be able to ride the bus on her own. He believed in her.
Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. Monday morning arrived. Before she left, she embraced her husband tightly. Her eyes filled with tears of gratitude for his loyalty, his patience, and his love. She said good-bye and, for the first time, they went their separate ways. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went perfectly, and a wild gaiety5 took hold of Susan. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself!
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was exiting the bus, the driver said, 「Miss, I sure envy you.」 Curious, Susan asked the driver why.
「You know, every morning for the past week, a fine looking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a salute6 and walks away. You are one lucky lady,」 the bus driver said.
Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. She was so lucky for he had given her a gift more powerful than sight, a gift she didn't need to see to believe—the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.

當這個手持白杖的年輕女子小心翼翼地上車時，車上的乘客都向她投去憐憫的目光。她向司機付了車費之後，雙手摸索著座位，然後坐好，把公文包放在膝蓋上，手杖靠著腿。
34歲的蘇珊失明已有一年了。一起醫療事故奪去了她的視力，她頓時陷入黑暗之中，內心充滿憤怒、沮喪，還有顧影自憐，而她可以依靠的只有她的丈夫馬克了。
馬克是名空軍軍官，他深愛著蘇珊。蘇珊失明的頭些日子，他眼睜睜地看著妻子陷入絕望，心裡打定主意，要盡一切辦法幫助她。
蘇珊終於願意重返工作崗位了。可她怎麼去上班呢？以前都是乘公交車去的，但是她現在很害怕，自己一個人不敢在城裡轉。於是馬克自告奮勇早晚坐公車接送，直到她可以一個人應付。這就是事情的經過。
整整兩周，馬克每天都一身戎裝，陪著蘇珊一起上下班，教她怎麼憑借其他感官，尤其是聽覺，判斷她所處的位置，以及如何適應新的環境。他還幫她與司機交好，這樣司機能照顧她，並給她留個座位。
每天早上，他們都一起同行，然後馬克再乘計程車回去上班。盡管馬克得穿過整座城市，而且疲憊不堪，又花費不菲，但是他堅信蘇珊一定能獨立乘車的，只是時間問題。
最後，蘇珊決定自己獨自坐車上班。星期一上午，臨行前，她緊緊地擁抱著自己的丈夫，眼裡蓄滿了感激的淚水，感謝他的忠誠，他的耐心，還有他的愛。她向他道了別，他們第一次朝著不同的方向走去。周一、周二、周三、周四……每天她的獨行之旅都很順利，蘇珊感到一陣狂喜。她成功了！她真的能一個人去上班了！
周五早上，蘇珊照常乘公共汽車去上班。就要下車了，司機說：「小姐，我真羨慕你啊。」蘇珊感到很奇怪，便問司機為什麼。
「是這樣的，上星期，每天早上都有一個儀表堂堂穿著軍裝的男士一直站在拐彎處看著你下車，看著你安全地穿過街道，又看著你走進辦公樓，他向你飛一個吻，沖你行個禮，然後才動身離去。你真是個幸運的姑娘啊！」 司機說。
蘇珊的臉上流下幸福的淚水。她是幸運的，因為馬克給了她比視力更珍貴的禮物，一份她不需要看就能體會到的禮物——這就是愛的禮物，它能給黑暗帶來光明。

【美文欣賞】The Old Man and the Sea

The Old Man and the Sea
老人與海

The sun rose thinly from the sea and the old man could see the other boats, low on the water and well in toward the shore, spread out across the current.Then the sun was brighter and the glare came on the water and then, as it rose clear, the flat sea sent it back at his eyes so that it hurt sharply and he rowed without looking into it.

淡淡的太陽從海上升起，老人看見其他船隻低低地挨著水面，朝海岸漂去，向海浪垂直的方向分散開。接著，太陽更明亮了，刺眼的強光照在水面上。當太陽從地平線上完全升起，平坦的海面把陽光反射到他眼睛裡，使他的眼睛劇烈地刺痛，所以他劃著船，不朝太陽看。

He looked down into the water and watched the lines that went straight down into the dark of the water. He kept them straighter than anyone did, so that at each level in the darkness of the stream there would be a t waiting exactly where he wished it to be for any fish that swam there. Others let them drift with the current and sometimes they were at sixty fathoms when the fishermen thought they were at a hundred.

他俯視水中，注視著那幾根一直垂到漆黑的深水裡的釣索。他把釣索垂得比任何人更直，這樣，在黑暗的灣流深處的幾個不同的深度，都會有一個魚餌剛好在他所指望的地方等待著游動的魚來覓食。別的漁夫讓釣索順水漂流，有時釣索在六十英尋的深處，他們卻自以為在一百英尋的深處呢。

But, he thought, I keep them with precision. Only I have no luck any more. But who knows?Maybe today. Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready.

但是，他想，我總是把它們放在精確的地方。只是我沒有運氣，可誰知道呢？也許今天就有好運。每天都是新的一天。走運當然更好，但我寧願做得精確。那麼運氣來的時候，你就准備好了。

The sun was two hours higher now and it did not hurt his eyes so much to look into the east.There were only three boats in sight now and they showed very low and far inshore.

兩個小時過去了，太陽升得更高了，朝東望去，眼睛沒有刺痛得那麼厲害。現在只能看見三艘船，它們顯得很低，靠近海岸。

All my life the early sun has hurt my eyes, he thought. Yet they are still good. In the evening I can look straight into it without getting the blackness. It has more force in the evening too. But in the morning it is painful.

這一輩子，初升的太陽總是刺痛我的眼睛，他心想。然而，眼睛仍然是好好的。傍晚時分，我能直視它，不會有眼前發黑的感覺。陽光在傍晚要更強烈些，不過在早上它叫人感到痛苦。

Just then he saw a man-of-war bird with his long black wings circling in the sky ahead of him.He made a quick drop, slanting down on his back-swept wings, and then circled again.

就在這時，他看見一隻軍艦鳥，有著黑色的長翅膀，在他前方的天空中盤旋。它斜著後掠的雙翅迅速俯沖下來，然後又盤旋起來。

"He's got something," the old man said aloud. "He's not just looking."

"他逮到東西了，"老人大聲說，"他不只是看看。"

He rowed slowly and steadily toward where the bird was circling. He did not hurry and he kept his lines straight up and down. But he crowded the current a little so that he was still fishing correctly though faster than he would have fished if he was not trying to use the bird.

他緩慢而堅定地劃向鳥兒盤旋的地方。他並不匆忙，使釣索保持著上下垂直的位置。不過他朝海流靠近了一點，這樣他依然在用正確的方式捕魚，盡管他的速度要比不打算利用鳥兒來引路時來得快。

The bird went higher in the air and circled again, his wings motionless. Then he dove suddenly and the old man saw flying fish spurt out of the water and sail desperately over the surface.

鳥兒在空中飛得更高了，再次盤旋起來，翅膀紋絲不動。然後它猛然俯沖下來，老人看見飛魚躍出水面，拚命地在海面上掠過。

"Dolphin," the old man said aloud. "Big dolphin."

"海豚，"老人大聲說道' "大海豚。"

He shipped his oars and brought a small line from under the bow. It had a wire leader and a medium-sized hook and he ted it with one of the sardines. He let it go over the side and then made it fast to a ring bolt in the stern. Then he ted another line and left it coiled in the shade of the bow. He went back to rowing and to watching the long-winged black bird who was working, now, low over the water.

他取下槳，從船頭下面拿出一根細釣絲。釣絲上系著鐵絲導線和一隻中號釣鉤，他把一條沙丁魚掛在上面，順著船舷放下水，然後將絲緊緊地系在船尾一隻帶環螺栓上。接著他在另一根線上安上魚餌，把它盤繞著擱置在船頭的陰影里。他又劃起船，看著長翅黑鳥，它此刻正在水面上低飛。

As he watched the bird dipped again slanting his wings for the dive and then swinging them wildly and ineffectually as he followed the flying fish. The old man could see the slight bulge in the water that the big dolphin raised as they followed the escaping fish. The dolphin were cutting through the water below the flight of the fish and would be in the water, driving at speed, when the fish dropped. It is a big school of dolphin, he thought. They are widespread and the flying fish have little chance. The bird has no chance. The flying fish are too big for him and they go too fast.

他正看著，鳥兒又斜起翅膀准備俯沖，它向下沖來，然後又猛烈地扇動著雙翼，追蹤飛魚，但是沒有成效。老人看見大海豚在追趕飛魚時海面微微隆起的水浪。海豚在飛掠的魚下面破水而行，等魚一落下，海豚就會飛速潛人水中。這群海豚真大呀！他想。它們分散開去，飛魚很少有機會逃脫。軍艦鳥也沒有機會，飛魚對它來說太大了，並且它們速度太快。

He watched the flying fish burst out again and again and the ineffectual movements of the bird. That school has gotten away from me, he thought. They are moving out too fast and too far. But perhaps I will pick up a stray and perhaps my big fish is around them. My big fish must be somewhere.

他看著飛魚一次次地躍出水面，鳥兒的行為也一無所獲。那群海豚要遠離我了，他想著。它們動作太快，游得太遠。但是，也許我會逮住一條掉隊的，也許我的大魚就在它們周圍。我的大魚一定在某個地方。

樂和尊嚴。成者深知成一事要看好時節，行一事要把握時機。
Although winners can freely enjoy themselves, they can also postpone enjoyment, can discipline themselves in the present to enhance their enjoyment in the future. Winners are not afraid to go after what he wants, but they do so in proper ways. Winners do not get their security by controlling others. They do not set themselves up to lose.

A winner cares about the world and its peoples. A winner is not isolated from the general problems of society, but is concerned, compassionate, and committed to improving the quality of life. Even in the face of national and international adversity, a winner』s self-image is not one of a powerless indivial. A winner works to make the world a better place.
成者心憂天下，並不孤立塵世弊病之外，而是置身事內，滿腔熱情，致力於改善民生。即使面對民族，國家之危亡，成者亦非無力回天之個體。他總是努力令世界更好。
Extend the Miracle 發揮潛力，創造無限
My skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate, rot, and die lest I put them to good use. I have unlimited potential. Only a small portion of my brain do I employ; only a paltry amount of my muscles do I flex. A hundredfold or more can I increase my accomplishments of yesterday and this I will do, beginning today. 我的技藝，我的頭腦，我的心靈，我的身體，若不善加利用，都將隨著時間的流逝而遲鈍，腐朽，甚至死亡。我的潛力無窮無盡，腦力、體能稍加開發，就能超過以往的任何成就。從今天開始。我就要開發潛力。
Nevermore will I be satisfied with yesterday's accomplishments nor will I inlge, anymore, in self-praise for deeds which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle which proced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today? 我不再因昨日的成績沾沾自喜，不再為微不足道的成績目吹自擂。我能做的比已經完成的更好。我的出生並非最後一樣奇跡，為什麼自己不能再創奇跡呢？
And I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential

until it cries for mercy.
我不是隨意來到這個世上的。我生來應為高山。而非草芥。從今往後，我要竭盡全力成為群峰之巔。將我的潛能發揮到最大限度。
I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think and now I know a great secret of life for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements, heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise. I will no longer be fooled by the garments they wear for mine eyes are open. I will look beyond the cloth and I will not be deceived.
我有雙眼，可以觀察；我有頭腦，可以思考。現在我已洞悉了一個人生中偉大的奧秘。我發現，一切問題、沮喪、悲傷，都是喬裝打扮的機遇之神。我不再被他們的外表所蒙騙，我已睜開雙眼，看破了他們的偽裝。

Relish the Moment 品味當下
Tucked away in our subconsciousness is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the continent. We are traveling by train. Out the windows, we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at a crossing, of cattle grazing on a distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, of row upon row of corn and wheat, of flatlands and valleys, of mountains and rolling hillsides, of city skylines and village halls。
在我們內心深處，總隱藏著一片詩情畫意的風景。我們覺得自己正處於一次跨越大陸的漫長旅行中。坐在火車上，窗外流動的風景在我們面前一掠而過：附近高速公路上馳騁的汽車;十字路口揮手的孩童;遠處山坡上放牧的牛群;電廠排放的裊裊煙塵;成片的玉米地和小麥地;還有，平原、峽谷、山脈和丘陵;城市的輪廓和鄉間的農舍。 But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we get there, so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes for loitering -waiting, waiting, waiting for the station。

可是，我們想的最多的還是目的地。某天的某一刻，我們抵達站點，會有樂隊演奏，歡迎旗幟飄揚。一旦我們到達了目的地，夢想就會變成現實，而我們破碎的生活會像一幅拼好的畫圖，變得完美。我們焦躁不安地在車廂里踱來踱去，詛咒火車的遲緩–等啊等，等待進站的那一刻。
「When we reach the station, that will be it!」 we cry. 「When I』m 18.」 「When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!」"When I put the last kid through college.」"When I have paid off the mortgage!」 「When I get a promotion.」 「When I reach the age of retirement, I shall live happily ever after!」 「進站時，一切都好了!」我們呼喊著。」我滿18歲時。」"我買了一輛新的450SL賓士轎車時!」"當我供最小的孩子讀完大學。」"當我還了所有的貸款。」"當我退休的時候，就從此過上了幸福的生活!」
Sooner or later, we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It constantly outdistances us。
遲早，我們會意識到人生沒有終點站，沒有什麼地方真正完美。生命的真正樂趣在於旅行的過程。終點站只是一個夢，它永遠在我們的前方。 「Relish the moment」 is a good motto, especially when coupled with Psalm 118:24, 「This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.」 It isn』t the burdens of today that drive men mad. It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today。 「品味現在」本身就是一句很好的箴言，再加上《聖經?詩篇》第118章第24行的這樣一句話，使得它更顯特別：」主創造了今天，我們為活在今日而歡欣雀躍。」導致人們瘋狂的往往不是今日的沉重，而是對昨日的懊悔和對明日的畏懼。懊悔和畏懼如同一對孿生的竊賊，偷走了我們的今天。
So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice creams, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more, cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. The station will come soon enough. 因此，別再在車廂內徘徊，不要計算著餘下的行程吧!讓我們攀登更多的高山，吃冰激凌，赤腳漫步，游泳，欣賞日落，多點兒歡笑，少些淚水吧。讓生命活在我們前進的腳步中，那麼車站很快就會到達。
有種旅行叫作人生
Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations. 人生好似一個包裹，這個包裹里藏著快樂與悲傷、成功與失敗，希望與絕望。人生也是一個學習的過程。那些經歷給我們上了全新的課，讓我們變得更好。隨著每一天的過去，我們學會了處理各種各樣的問題。

英語美文小短文是課堂英語學習的補充閱讀材料，能讓學生在課後自行閱讀和背誦，這樣有利於學生擴充課外知識，培養語感和興趣。這些英語短文往往都蘊含著積極向上的主題，使學生感受到英語的魅力和閱讀的快樂，從而激發對英語的學習興趣以及獲得情感上的升華。那麼，如何欣賞英語美文小短文呢？
一、英語美文小短文中的英語知識
英語美文的篇幅都是很短小精煉的，由學生所學過的基礎的短句、句子所構成，句式成分簡單清晰，易於學生的理解。當學生在閱讀英語美文的時候，可以一邊進行英語知識的復習，一邊進行英語知識的積累和延伸。經常會出現同一個知識點在課本中和在美文中的運用有所不同，這樣來說，十分有利於學生在學習英語時培養出舉一反三的發散性思維能力。
二、英語美文小短文中的寫作技巧
英語美文“麻雀雖小”，但是它的“五臟俱全”，小編這里指的就是英語美文的結構整體上是很完整的。短文的好處就是能夠把一篇陌生的英語文章的結構清晰地展現在學生的面前，不會因為篇幅過長而使得學生感到厭倦。文中的開頭、主要內容、結尾段落劃分十分清楚，即使是段落中間每一句話也是層層遞進，有邏輯關系的，而且寫作時運用的語法也很簡單、片語准確，為學生模仿練習英語寫作提供了模板和技巧，帶給學生寫作形式上的點撥。
三、英語美文小短文中的情感價值
英語美文的“美”表現在學生閱讀時所產生的審美、腦海中的形象美和情感上的熏陶等方面，這也是英語美文和其他英語材料所不同的地方。上述兩點側重的是英語美文對於學生的知識和技能上面的培養，它存在於學生學習中的最大價值就是美文對於學生情感態度和價值觀上的培養。學生在理解英語美文的基礎上，進行自我感知，形成自己的體會，受用於生活的方方面面。
英語美文小短文不僅可以使學生開闊視野，增長知識，培養良好的英語自學能力和閱讀能力，可以進一步鞏固課內學到的英語知識，提高學生的理解水平和體會到作文的魅力，受到一定程度的寫作能力熏陶。更重要的是讓孩子們進一步明白做人的道理，使學生能健康快樂地成長。

10. 找大量的英語文章 短文 我拿來要摘抄 提高閱讀能力 最好有雙語的

1.The Rainy Day(雨天)
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold and dark and dreary;
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My thought still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still, sad heart! And cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
(天冷、陰暗、沉悶；
下著雨，風也刮個不停；
藤還攀附著頹垣殘壁，
每來一陣狂風，枯葉附落紛紛，
天真是陰暗而沉悶。
我的生活寒冷、陰郁、沉悶；
下著雨，風也刮個不停；
我的思想還糾纏著消逝的往事，
大風里，我的青春希望相繼熄滅，
天真是陰暗而沉悶。
安靜吧，憂傷的心！別再悔恨；
烏雲後面太陽依然輝煌燦爛；
你的命運和大家的一樣，
每個人一生都得逢上陰雨，
有些日子必然陰暗而沉悶。 )

2.The Life I Desired(我所追求的生活)
That must be the story of innumerable couples, and the pattern of life it offers has a homely grace. It reminds you of a placid rivulet, meandering smoothly through green pastures and shaded by pleasant trees, till at last it falls into the vasty sea; but the sea is so calm, so silent, so indifferent, that you are troubled suddenly by a vague uneasiness. Perhaps it is only by a kink in my nature, strong in me even in those days, that I felt in such an existence, the share of the great majority, something amiss. I recognized its social value. I saw its ordered happiness, but a fever in my blood asked for a wilder course. There seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights. In my heart was desire to live more dangerously. I was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous shoals if I could only have change--change and the excitement of unforeseen.
(這一定是世間無數對夫妻的生活寫照，這種生活模式給人一種天倫之美。它使人想起一條平靜的河流，蜿蜒暢流過綠茵茵的草場，濃蔭遮蔽，最後注入煙波浩淼的汪洋大海；但是大海太過平靜，太過沉默，太過不動聲色，你會突然感到莫名的不安。也許這只是我自己的一種怪誕的想法，在那樣的年代，這想法對我影響很深：我覺得這像大多數人一樣的生活，似乎欠缺了一點兒什麼。我承認這種生活有社會價值，我也看到了它那井然有序的幸福，但我血液里的沖動卻渴望一種更桀驁不馴的旅程。這樣的安逸中好像有一種叫我驚懼不安的東西。我的心渴望一種更加驚險的生活。只要生活中還能有變遷－－以及不可知的刺激，我願意踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖，奔赴暗礁滿布的海灘。)

3.Friends(朋友)
A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart. There's always going to be people that hurt you, so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.
真正的朋友是一個可以援手幫助並感動你心扉的人。 別人常常傷害你，所以你該繼續付出信任，並小心挑選你下次信任的人。
Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you. 在你想了解別人也想讓別人了解你之前，先完善並了解自己。
Remember: Whatever happens, happens for a reason. 要記住：任何事情的發生都有因有起。
How many people actually have 8 true friends? Hardly anyone I know. But some of us have all-right friends and good friends. 有多少人可以擁有八個真正的朋友？就我所知少之又少。但我們會有泛泛之交和好友。

4.Virtue(美德)
Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright!
The bridal of the earth and sky--
The dew shall weep thy fall tonight;
For thou must die.
Sweet rose, whose hue angry and brave,
Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye,
Thy root is ever in its grave,
And thou must die.
Sweet spring, full of sweet days and roses,
A box where sweets compacted lie,
My music shows ye have your closes,
And all must die.
Only a sweet and virtuous soul,
Like season'd timber, never gives;
But though the whole world turn to coal,
Then chiefly lives.
甜美的白晝，如此涼爽、安寧、明媚！
天地間完美的匹配－－
今宵的露珠兒將為你的消逝而落淚；
因為你必須離去。
美麗的玫瑰，色澤紅潤艷麗，
令匆匆而過的人拭目而視，
你的根永遠扎在墳墓里，
而你必須消逝。
美妙的春天，充滿了美好的日子和芳香的玫瑰，
如一隻芬芳滿溢的盒子，
我的音樂表明你們也有終止，
萬物都得消逝。
唯有美好而正直的心靈，
猶如乾燥備用的木料，永不走樣；
縱然整個世界變為灰燼，
它依然流光溢彩。

5.Have Faith and Expect the Best(心懷信念，並追求完美)
Faith begins by believing in your heart that what is right has a chance. 信念始於內心對機緣深信不疑。
Faith is knowing in your heart that good can overcome evil, that the sun can shine in a rainstrom. 信念是心底深信善良能戰勝邪惡，太陽會在暴風雨中升起。
Faith is peaceful and comforting, because it comes from within where no one can invade your private dreams. 信念平靜而給人慰藉，它源於心靈深處，在那裡，無人能窺探只屬於你的秘密。
Faith is not something you can demand or command; it is a result of commitment to belief. 信念不可強求或控制，它是對信仰忠貞不渝的自然流露。
Faith is believing in something you can't see or hear, something deep inside that only you understand and only you control. 信念是只有你能理解和駕馭的內心所想，它無法捉摸，但你要篤信不疑。
Faith is trusting in yourself enough to know that no matter how things turn out, you will make the best of them. 信念就是堅信自己無論如何總能將糟糕的局面扭轉，展現事態的最好一面。
