A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
图书
Books
No book can ever be finished. While working on it we learn just enough to find it immature the moment we turn away from it.
没有一本书是写不完的。当我们在做这件事的时候，我们学到了足够的东西，当我们离开它的时候，我们会发现它不够成熟。
Great books are great in part because of what they ask of their readers: they are not readily encountered, easily assessed.
伟大的著作之所以伟大，部分原因在于它们对读者提出的要求:它们不容易遇到，也不容易评估。
Books and opinions, no matter from whom they came, if they are in opposition to human rights, are nothing but dead letters.
书籍和意见，不管它们来自何方，如果它们反对人权，就只是一纸空文。
Generally speaking, books don't cause much harm. Except when you read them, that is. Then they cause all kinds of problems.
一般来说，书不会造成太大的伤害。除非你读了它们。然后他们造成各种各样的问题。
The depth of a person's character is not measured by his or her physical strength, but by the depth of his or her nobility.
一个人性格的深度不是看他或她的体力，而是看他或她的高贵程度。
With my eyes closed, I would touch a familiar book and draw its fragrance deep inside me. This was enough to make me happy.
闭上眼睛，我会触摸一本熟悉的书，把它的芳香深深吸进我的内心。这足以使我高兴。
If you truly love a book, you should sleep with it, write in it, read aloud from it, and fill its pages with muffin crumbs.
如果你真的喜欢一本书，你应该和它一起睡觉，写在里面，大声朗读，在书页上撒满松饼屑。
We need books...because we are all, in the private kingdoms of our hearts, desperate for the company of a wise, true friend.
我们需要书……因为我们都在自己内心的王国里，渴望有一个明智的、真正的朋友作伴。
A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted. You should live several lives while reading it.
一本好书应该给你留下丰富的经验，让你略显疲惫。读这本书的时候，你应该多活几辈子。
Since I was eight years old. I didn't have a TV, so comic books were definitely my television, my soap operas, and all that.
从我八岁开始。我没有电视，所以漫画书绝对是我的电视，我的肥皂剧等等。
When I write, I try to think back to what I was afraid of or what was scary to me, and try to put those feelings into books.
当我写作的时候，我试着回想我害怕什么，或者对我来说什么是可怕的，试着把这些感受写进书里。
We are never allowed to forget that some books are badly written; we should remember that sometimes they're badly read, too.
我们永远不能忘记，有些书写得很差;我们应该记住，有时他们也读得不好。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.
我仍然觉得每一天都太短了，我无法去想所有的事情，我无法去散步，我无法读所有的书，我无法去见所有的朋友。
Literature is news that stays news.
文学是保持新闻的新闻。
Literature is the human activity that takes the fullest and most precise account of variousness, possibility, complexity, and difficulty.
文学是一种人类活动，它对多样性、可能性、复杂性和艰巨性进行了最全面、最精确的描述。
When we read a story, we inhabit it. The covers of the book are like a roof and four walls. What is to happen next will take place within the four walls of the story. And this is possible because the story's voice makes everything its own.
当我们阅读一个故事时，我们会沉浸其中。这本书的封面像一个屋顶和四面墙。接下来要发生的事情将发生在故事的四面墙之内。这是可能的，因为故事的声音使一切成为自己的。
Books are the mirrors of the soul.
书籍是心灵的镜子。
And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.
这就是我们的生活，远离了公众的纠缠，在树木中找到了语言，在奔流的小溪中找到了书籍，在石头中找到了布道，在一切事物中找到了美好。
