Sports teaches you character, it teaches you to play by the rules, it teaches you to know what it feels like to win and lose-it teaches you about life.
运动教会你性格，它教会你按规则行事，它教会你知道输赢的感觉——它教会你生活的真谛。

You need to feel that the game is important to you. Lose that feeling and you lose your edge. There's no faking that kind of emotion. You can't invent the feeling. It's got to be natural, real.
你需要感觉到比赛对你很重要。失去这种感觉，你就失去了优势。那种情绪是不可以装出来的。你无法创造这种感觉。它必须是自然的，真实的。

The day when a sportsman stops thinking above all else of the happiness in his own effort and the intoxication of the power and physical balance he derives from it, the day when he lets considerations of vanity or interest take over, on this day his ideal will die.
当一个运动员不再把自己的努力所带来的快乐放在首位，不再陶醉于从中获得的力量和身体平衡时，当他让虚荣心或兴趣占据主导地位时，他的理想就会在这一天破灭。
