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。

If you asked somebody, 'what do you wish for in life?' they wouldn't say 'happiness.' I would have answered 'excitement, knowledge,' God knows - I mean, many, many different things, but certainly not 'happiness'. It seemed like a foreign concept to wish for something that specific and that singular.

如果你问某人,“你希望生活中有什么?”他们不会说“幸福”。我会回答“兴奋、知识”,上帝知道——我的意思是,很多很多不同的东西,但肯定不是“幸福”。这似乎是一个外国的概念,希望什么具体的和独特的。

Capitals are increased by parsimony, and diminished by prodigality and misconduct. By what a frugal man annually saves he not only affords maintenance to an additional number of productive hands...but...he establishes as it were a perpetual fund for the maintenance of an equal number in all times to come.

资本因节俭而增加,因挥霍和不当行为而减少。一个节俭的人每年节省下来的钱,不仅能养活更多有生产力的人,而且……他把它当作一项永久的基金,以便在今后的任何时候保持人数相等。

A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

给此刻的你,一点向前的力量。
