A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
沉默
Silence
The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed.
人心藏着财宝，在隐密处，在隐密处，就是隐密处。那些思想、希望、梦想和快乐，一旦显露出来，它们的魅力就会被打破。
It's a very strange silence that I'm living in right now. It's a silence that has a lot of activity and noise in it from a zone that I don't live in on this earth.
我现在生活在一种非常奇怪的寂静中。这是一种安静，有很多活动和噪音，来自一个我不生活在这个地球上的区域。
There is no such thing as an empty space or an empty time. There is always something to see, something to hear. In fact, try as we may to make a silence, we cannot.
没有空的空间或空的时间。总有一些东西可以看，一些东西可以听。事实上，尽管我们尽力保持沉默，但我们做不到。
There was silence in the room. Then a voice, stunning as thunder, clear and common as a train whistle the voice of a ball park announcer: If you build it, he will come.
房间里一片寂静。然后是一个声音，像雷声一样震耳欲聋，像火车鸣笛一样清晰而普通。球场播音员的声音说:“如果你建好了，他会来的。”
Worldly faces never look so worldly as at a funeral. They have the same effect of grating incongruity as the sound of a coarse voice breaking the solemn silence of night.
世俗的面孔从来没有在葬礼上显得那么世俗。它们具有刺耳的不协调的效果，就像一个粗哑的声音打破了夜晚的肃穆寂静。
And in the afternoon they entered a land - but such a land! A land hung in mourning, darkened by gigantic cypresses, submerged; a land of reptiles, silence, shadow, decay.
到了下午，他们进入了一片土地——但是这片土地!一片笼罩在哀悼之中的土地，被巨大的柏树遮蔽，淹没了;爬行动物的土地，寂静，阴影，腐朽。
Much talking is the cause of danger. Silence is the means of avoiding misfortune. The talkative parrot is shut up in a cage. Other birds, without speech, fly freely about.
多说话是危险的原因。沉默是避免不幸的方法。那只会说话的鹦鹉被关在笼子里。其他的鸟，没有语言，自由地飞翔。
There may be something good in silence. It's a brand new thing. You can hear the funniest little discussions, if you keep turning the volume down. Shut yourself up, and listen out loud.
在沉默中也许会有一些美好的东西。这是一个全新的东西。如果你一直把音量调低，你就能听到最有趣的小讨论。把自己关起来，大声听。
Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself, and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from.
学会与自己内心的沉默保持联系，知道生活中的每件事都有目标。没有错误，没有巧合，所有的事情都是上天给我们的祝福，让我们从中学习。
These years in silence and reflection made me stronger and reminded me that acceptance has to come from within and that this kind of truth gives me the power to conquer emotions I didn't even know existed.
这些年来，在沉默和反思中，我变得更加坚强，并提醒我，接受必须来自内心，而这种真理给了我征服我甚至不知道存在的情感的力量。
For we have been socialized to respect fear more than our own needs for language and definition, and while we wait in silence for that final luxury of fearlessness, the weight of that silence will choke us.
因为我们已经习惯于尊重恐惧，而不是我们自己对语言和定义的需求。当我们在沉默中等待无畏的最后奢侈时，这种沉默的重量将会窒息我们。
I have always thought it would be a blessing if each person could be blind and deaf for a few days during his early adult life. Darkness would make him appreciate sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound.
我一直认为，如果每个人在成年初期都能失明或失聪几天，那将是一件幸事。黑暗会使他珍惜光明;寂静会教会他声音的乐趣。
