A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
陌生人
Stranger
Wandering in a vast forest at night, I have only a faint light to guide me. A stranger appears and says to me: 'My friend, you should blow out your candle in order to find your way more clearly.' This stranger is a theologian.
夜晚漫步在浩瀚的森林里,只有微弱的灯光指引着我。一个陌生人出现了,对我说:‘朋友,你应该吹灭蜡烛,以便更清楚地找到路。“这个陌生人是个神学家。
We couldn't be making as much money, if we had to deal with stranger behaviour. And right now, anybody who slows down our economic productivity, off they go. We have a place for them, the psychiatric institution. That's the main thing, they slow things down.
如果我们必须处理陌生人的行为,我们不可能赚那么多钱。现在,任何降低我们经济生产力的人,都得走人。我们给他们留了个地方,精神病院。这是最主要的,他们会让事情慢下来。
It is only a man's own fundamental thoughts that have truth and life in them. For it is these that he really and completely understands. To read the thoughts of others is like taking the remains of someone else's meal, like putting on the discarded clothes of a stranger.
只有一个人的基本思想中才有真理和生命。因为这是他真正完全理解的。读别人的思想,就像吃别人吃剩的饭,就像穿陌生人丢弃的衣服。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Anytime you see a bit where some stranger does something to me, it's me.
只要你看到有陌生人对我做了什么,那就是我。
I don't have a problem with conflict. I'm not a stranger to high-pressure situations. I've been there, believe me.
我没有冲突的问题。我对高压环境并不陌生。我也经历过,相信我。
Tomorrow, Smile at a perfect stranger and mean it.
明天,对一个完全陌生的人微笑并认真对待。
The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life.
每一个艺术家的目标都是通过人为的手段来捕捉运动,也就是生命,并把它固定住,这样一百年后,当一个陌生人看到它时,它又动了起来,因为这就是生命。
It's really amazing when two strangers become the best of friends. But it's really sad, when the best of friends become two strangers.
当两个陌生人成为最好的朋友,这真的很神奇。但是当最好的朋友变成两个陌生人的时候,真的很伤心。
Strangers make restless bedfellows, especially when bedbugs are your only acquaintances.
陌生人是不安分的同床异梦者,尤其是当臭虫是你唯一的熟人时。
