A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

把好句子,读进生活里。

一句英文,一种视角。慢慢读,总有一句与你共鸣。

The ideals which have lighted me on my way and time after time given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. . . . The ordinary objects of human endeavour -- property, outward success, luxury -- have always seemed to me contemptible.

有些理想曾为我们引过道路,并不断给我新的勇气以欣然面对人生,那些理想就是真、善和美……在我看来,人类奋斗的普通目标——财产、表面上的成功、奢侈——总是可鄙的。

And what is liberty, whose very name makes the heart beat faster and shakes the world? Is it not the union of all liberties - liberty of conscience, of education, of association, of the press, of travel, or labor, or trade?

自由是什么,它的名字能使人心跳加速,震撼世界?难道它不是所有自由的联盟吗——良知的自由、教育的自由、结社的自由、出版的自由、旅行的自由、劳动的自由、贸易的自由?

A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

给此刻的你,一点向前的力量。

关于学习、善意与成长,读一句,再想一想。

Let us fix our attention out of ourselves as much as possible; let us chase our imagination to the heavens, or to the utmost limits of the universe; we never really advance a step beyond ourselves, nor can conceive any kind of existence, but those perceptions, which have appeared in that narrow compass.

让我们尽可能把注意力从自己身上移开;让我们把我们的想象力推向天空,或者宇宙的极限;我们从来没有真正超越自己一步,也不能设想任何一种存在,除了那些已经出现在那个狭窄的范围内的知觉。
