All that is beautiful poems and passages of life things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts. 万物不变,是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉,但要保留你的思想
Think it over... 好好想想„„
today we have higher buildings and wider highways, but shorter temperaments and narrower points of view; 今天我们拥有了更高层的楼宇以及更宽阔的公路,但是我们的性情却更为急躁,眼光也更加狭隘;
we spend more, but enjoy less; 我们消耗的更多,享受到的却更少;
we have bigger houses, but smaller families; 我们的住房更大了,但我们的家庭却更小了; we have more compromises, but less time; 我们妥协更多,时间更少;
we have more knowledge, but less judgment; 我们拥有了更多的知识,可判断力却更差了;
we have more medicines, but less health; 我们有了更多的药品,但健康状况却更不如意; we have multiplied out possessions, but reced out values; 我们拥有的财富倍增,但其价值却减少了;
we talk much, we love only a little, and we hate too much; we reached the moon and came back, but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors; we have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space; we have higher income, but less morals; these are times with more liberty, but less joy; we have much more food, but less nutrition; these are the days in which it takes two salaries for each home, but divorces increase; these are times of finer houses, but more broken homes; All that is beautiful poems and passages of life things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts. That’s why I propose, that as of today; You do not keep anything for a special occasion. Because every day that you live is a special occasion. search for knowledge, read more ,sit on your porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs; spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, visit the places you love; life is a chain of moments of enjoyment; not only about survival; use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it. Remove from your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days “or "someday"; let's write that letter we thought of writing "one of these days"! let's tell our families and friends how much we love them; do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life; every day, every hour, and every minute is special; and you don't know if it will be your last.
我们说的多了,爱的却少了,我们的仇恨也更多了; 我们可以往返月球,但却难以迈出一步去亲近我们的左邻右舍;我们可以征服外太空,却征服不了我们的内心;我们的收入增加了,但我们的道德却少了;我们的时代更加自由了,但我们拥有的快乐时光却越来越少;我们有了更多的食物,但所能得到的营养却越来越少了;现在每个家庭都可以有双份收入,但离婚的现象越来越多了;现在的住房越来越精致,但我们也有了更多破碎的家庭;这就是我为什么要说,让我们从今天开始;不要将你的东西为了某一个特别的时刻而预留着,因为你生活的每一天都是那么特别;寻找更多的知识,多读一些书,坐在你家的前廊里,以赞美的眼光去享受眼前的风景,不要带上任何功利的想法;花多点时间和朋友与家人在一起,吃你爱吃的食物,去你想去的地方;生活是一串串的快乐时光;我们不仅仅是为了生存而生存;举起你的水晶酒杯吧。不要吝啬洒上你最好的香水,你想用的时候就享用吧!从你的词汇库中移去所谓的“有那么一天”或者“某一天”;曾打算“有那么一天”去写的信,就在今天吧!告诉家人和朋友,我们是多么地爱他们;

虽然它颜色不深,香气很淡,请仍用这花来礼拜,趁着还有时间,就采折罢.

I am ever busy building this wall all around; and as this wall goes up into the sky day by day I lose sight of my true being in its dark shadow.

10、As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inex-haustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and reliable warrant of success in times of uncertainty.
学习之于心灵,就像食物之于身体一样。摄取了适量的营养食物,我们的身体得以生长而肌肉得以发达。 同样地,我们应该日复一日不断地学习以保持我们心智的敏锐,并扩充我们的智力容量。不断的学习提供我们用之不尽的燃料,来驱使我们磨砺我们的推理、分析和判断的能力。持续的学习是在信息时代中跟时代井驾齐驱的最稳当的方法,也是在变动的时代中成功的可靠保证。

培根 《论爱情》
The stage is more beholding to love, than the life of man. For as to the stage, love is ever matter of comedies, and now and then of tragedies; but in life it doth much mischief; sometimes like a siren, sometimes like a fury.舞台上的爱情生活比生活中的爱情要美好得多。因为在舞台上,爱情只是喜剧和悲剧的素材,而在人生中,爱情却常常招来不幸。它有时象那位诱惑人的魔女,有时又象那位复仇的女神。You may observe, that amongst all the great and worthy persons (whereof the memory remaineth, either ancient or recent) there is not one, that hath been transported to the mad degree of love: which shows that great spirits, and great business, do keep out this weak passion. You must except, nevertheless, Marcus Antonius, the half partner of the empire of Rome, and Appius Claudius, the decemvir and lawgiver; whereof the former was indeed a voluptuous man, and inordinate; but the latter was an austere and wise man: and therefore it seems (though rarely) that love can find entrance, not only into an open heart, but also into a heart well fortified, if watch be not well kept.你可以看到,一切真正伟大的人物(无论是古人、今人,只要是其英名永铭于人类记忆中的),没有一个是因爱情而发狂的人。因为伟大的事业只有罗马的安东尼和克劳底亚是例外。前者本性就好色荒淫,然而后者却是严肃多谋的人。这说明爱情不仅会占领开旷坦阔的胸怀,有时也能闯入壁垒森严的心灵----假如手御不严的话。
It is a poor saying of Epicurus, Satis magnum alter alteri theatrum sumus; as if man, made for the contemplation of heaven, and all noble objects, should do nothing but kneel before a little idol, and make himself a subject, though not of the mouth (as beasts are), yet of the eye; which was given him for higher purposes.埃辟克拉斯曾说过一句笨话:“人生不过是一座大戏台。”似乎本应努力追求高尚事业的人类,却只应象玩偶般地逢场作戏。虽然爱情的奴隶并不同于那班只顾吃喝的禽兽,但毕竟也只是眼目色相的奴隶,而上帝赐人以眼睛本来是有更高尚的用途的。
It is a strange thing, to note the excess of this passion, and how it braves the nature, and value of things, by this; that the speaking in a perpetual hyperbole, is comely in nothing but in love. Neither is it merely in the phrase; for whereas it hath been well said, that the arch-flatterer, with whom all the petty flatterers have intelligence, is a man’s self; certainly the lover is more. For there was never proud man thought so absurdly well of himself, as the lover doth of the person loved; and therefore it was well said, That it is impossible to love, and to be wise. Neither doth this weakness appear to others only, and not to the party loved; but to the loved most of all, except the love be reciproque. For it is a true rule, that love is ever rewarded, either with the reciproque, or with an inward and secret contempt.过度的爱情追求,必然会降低人本身的价值。例如,只有在爱情中,才总是需要那种浮夸陷媚的词令。而在其他场合,同样的词令只能招人耻笑。古人有一句名言:“最大的奉承,人总是留给自己的。”----只有对情人的奉承要算例外。因为甚至最骄傲的人,也甘愿在情人面前自轻自贱。所以古人说得好:“就是神在爱情中也难保持聪明。”情人的这种弱点不仅在外人眼中是明显的,就是在被追求者的眼中也会很明显----除非她(他)也在追求他(她)。所以,爱情的代价就是如此,不能得到回爱,就会得到一种深藏于心的轻蔑,这是一条永真的定律。
By how much the more, men ought to beware of this passion, which loseth not only other things, but itself! As for the other losses, the poet’s relation doth well figure them: that he that preferred Helena, quitted the gifts of Juno and Pallas. For whosoever esteemeth too much of amorous affection, quitteth both riches and wisdom.由此可见,人们应当十分警惕这种感情。因为它不但会使人丧失其他,而且可以使人丧失自己本身。甚至其他方面的损失,古诗人早告诉我们,那追求海伦的人,是放弃了财富和智慧的。
This passion hath his floods, in very times of weakness; which are great prosperity, and great adversity; though this latter hath been less observed: both which times kindle love, and make it more fervent, and therefore show it to be the child of folly. They do best, who if they cannot but admit love, yet make it keep quarters; and sever it wholly from their serious affairs, and actions, of life; for if it check once with business, it troubles men's fortunes, and make men, that they can no ways be true to their own ends.当人心最软弱的时候,爱情最容易入侵。再就是人春风得意,忘乎所以的独守困窘,孤独凄时,虽然后者未必然得到爱情。人在这样的时候最容易跳进爱情的火焰,由此可见,“爱情”实在是“愚蠢”的儿子。但有一些人,即使心中有了爱,仍能约束它,使它不妨碍重大的事业。因为,爱情一旦干扰情绪,就会阻碍人坚定的奔向既定的目标。
I know not how, but martial men are given to love: I think, it is but as they are given to wine; for perils commonly ask to be paid in pleasures.我不懂是什么缘故,使许多军人更容易堕入情网,也许这正象他们嗜爱饮酒一样,是因为危险的生活更需要欢乐的补偿。
There is in man’s nature, a secret inclination and motion, towards love of others, which if it be not spent upon some one or a few, doth naturally spread itself towards many, and maketh men become humane and charitable; as it is seen sometime in friars.人心中可能普遍具有一种博爱倾向,若不集中于某个专一的对象身上,就必然施之于更广泛的大众,使他成为仁善的人,象有的僧侣那样。
Nuptial love maketh mankind; friendly love perfecteth it; but wanton love corrupteth, and embaseth it.夫妻的爱,使人类繁衍。朋友的爱,给人以帮助。但那荒淫纵欲的爱,却只会使人堕落毁灭啊!
