把这一句,留给此刻的你
So many people bare their midriffs, I don't know why mine is such an issue.
这么多人袒露着他们的腹部,我不知道为什么我的腹部会成为一个问题。

当我发现故事书是由人写的,书并不是自然奇观,而是像草一样自己生长出来的时候,我感到既震惊又失望。
Eudora Welty
韦尔蒂
To say that any people are not fit for freedom, is to make poverty their choice, and to say they had rather be loaded with taxes than not.
说任何一个人都不适合自由,就是让贫困成为他们的选择,说他们宁愿背负重税也不愿不负担。
Thomas Paine
托马斯·潘恩
Being a funny person does an awful lot of things to you. You feel that you mustn't get serious with people. They don't expect it from you, and they don't want to see it. You're not entitled to be serious, you're a clown.
做一个有趣的人对你有很多好处。你觉得你不应该对别人太认真。他们不期待你这么做,他们也不想看到你这么做。你没资格严肃,你是个小丑。
Fanny Brice
布莱斯
I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday.
如果一个人今天没有比昨天更聪明,我认为他没有多大价值。
Abraham Lincoln
亚伯拉罕·林肯
Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident proposition that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim.
许多政治家习惯于把它作为一个不言自明的命题,即在人们能够充分利用他们的自由之前,没有人应该是自由的。这句格言就像古老故事里的傻瓜,他决定在学会游泳之前不下水。
Thomas Babington Macaulay
麦考莱
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
人们似乎没有看到,他们对世界的看法也是一种性格的表白。
Ralph Waldo Emerson
