A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
孤独
Solitude
But I think there's something wonderful and extraordinary about climbing on your own and just that kind of relationship to the environment. I'm very addicted to the mountains. You know, so, I do like that solitude.
但我认为，独自攀爬，以及与环境的那种关系，有一些奇妙而非凡的地方。我对山很上瘾。你知道，所以，我喜欢那种孤独。
It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.
在这个世界上，跟随世俗的意见生活是很容易的;在孤独中，我们很容易活在自己的世界里;但伟大的人是那些在人群中保持绝对甜蜜的孤独的独立性的人。
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
试图独自生活的人是不会成功的。他的心若不回答别人的心，就必枯干。如果他只听到自己思想的回声而没有发现其他灵感，他的大脑就会萎缩。
I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.
我从未找到过比独处更好的伴侣。在大多数情况下，当我们出国与人交往时，比我们呆在自己的房间里时更感到孤独。一个思考或工作的人总是孤独的，让他去他想去的地方。
It is in deep solitude that I find the gentleness with which I can truly love my brothers. The more solitary I am the more affection I have for them…. Solitude and silence teach me to love my brothers for what they are, not for what they say.
只有在深深的孤独中，我才能找到真正爱我的兄弟们的温柔。我越孤独，就越爱他们……孤独和沉默教会我爱我的兄弟，因为他们是谁，而不是他们说什么。
Do not allow yourself to be imprisoned by any affection. Keep your solitude. The day, if it ever comes, when you are given true affection there will be no opposition between interior solitude and friendship, quite the reverse. It is even by this infallible sign that you will recognize it.
不要让自己被任何感情所束缚。保持你的孤独。如果真有那么一天，当你得到真爱的时候，你内心的孤独和友谊之间就不会有对立，反之亦然。即使是这个绝对正确的信号，你也会认出它来。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Love from one being to another can only be that two solitudes come nearer, recognize and protect and comfort each other.
一个人对另一个人的爱，只能是两个孤独的人走近一些，相互认识，相互保护，相互安慰。
From the night, his solitude, the poet finds day and starts a diary that is lethal to the inert. The dark landscape yields a dialogue.
从夜晚，他的孤独，诗人发现了白天，并开始写日记，这是致命的惰性。黑暗的风景产生了对话。
Solitude, though it may be silent as light, is like light, the mightiest of agencies; for solitude is essential to man. All men come into this world alone and leave it alone.
孤独，虽然像光一样沉默，却像光一样，是最强大的中介;因为独处对人是必不可少的。所有的人都是独自来到这个世界上，然后离开它。
I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.
我生活在孤独中，年轻时是痛苦的，但成熟后是美味的。
Reading takes solitude and it takes focus.
阅读需要独处，需要专注。
For solitude is sometimes best society, And short retirement urges sweet return.
因为独处有时是最好的社交，短暂的退休促使甜蜜的回报。
