把这一句,留给此刻的你

The very best moment of writing 'Swamplandia!' was when I figured out what the ending should be. And even though I changed the prose of it, that realization was an ice cube melting in my chest.

写“沼泽地!”当我知道结局应该是什么时候。尽管我改变了文章的风格,但那种感觉就像一块冰块在我的胸膛里融化。

关于学习、善意与成长,读一句,再想一想。

If we are to survive, we must have ideas, vision, and courage. These things are rarely produced by committees. Everything that matters in our intellectual and moral life begins with an individual confronting his own mind and conscience in a room by himself.

如果我们要生存下去,我们必须有思想、远见和勇气。这些东西很少是由委员会制定的。在我们的智力和道德生活中,一切重要的事情都始于一个人在一个房间里独自面对自己的思想和良知。

We all have a natural instinct to protect children from harm. It's never fun to see a child hurt, even if it's just a scraped knee. But on the other hand, children need to take on physical challenges to learn and grow, and scraped knees and other bumps and bruises teach them valuable lessons about their own limits.

我们都有保护儿童免受伤害的自然本能。看到孩子受伤从来都不是一件有趣的事,即使只是擦伤了膝盖。但另一方面,孩子们需要接受身体上的挑战来学习和成长,擦伤膝盖和其他磕碰和瘀伤教会了他们关于自身极限的宝贵经验。
