A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
宇宙
Universe
It would be a poor thing to be an atom in a universe without physicists, and physicists are made of atoms. A physicist is an atom's way of knowing about atoms.
在没有物理学家的宇宙中，原子是一件可怜的事情，而物理学家是由原子组成的。物理学家是原子了解原子的一种方式。
We will build new ships to carry man forward into the universe, to gain a new foothold on the moon and to prepare for new journeys to the worlds beyond our own.

不幸的是，我曾是一名夏令营顾问，为那些母亲靠救济生活的孩子们提供帮助。
I'm attending to my legacy, making sure that it travels the universe in the best shape I can get it into. For as long as I'm alive, I'll still be its interpreter.
我在关注我的遗产，确保它以我能达到的最佳状态在宇宙中传播。只要我活着，我还是它的翻译。
Everytime you put something positive into the universe, the world changes. Your kindness invites miracles to show up, not just in your world, but in the whole world.
每次你往宇宙中注入一些积极的东西，世界就会改变。你的善良邀请奇迹出现，不仅在你的世界，而是在整个世界。
The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy.
努力理解宇宙是为数不多的能让人类的生活稍稍超越闹剧水平，并赋予它一些悲剧的优雅的东西之一。
Words, words, words! They shut one off from the universe. Three quarters of the time one's never in contact with things, only with the beastly words that stand for them.
单词,单词,单词!他们把一个人与宇宙隔绝了。四分之三的时间里，一个人从来没有接触过事物，只接触过代表它们的兽性的词语。
Humanity's deepest desire for knowledge is justification enough for our continuing quest. And our goal is nothing less than a complete description of the universe we live in.
人类对知识最深切的渴望足以为我们不断的探索提供正当的理由。我们的目标就是完整地描述我们所生活的宇宙。
This is a war universe. War all the time. That is its nature. There may be other universes based on all sorts of other principles, but ours seems to be based on war and games.
这是一个战争的世界。战争一直存在。这是它的本性。也许还有其他基于各种其他原则的宇宙，但我们的宇宙似乎是基于战争和游戏。
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.

Soccer is a great game, and the rich variety of styles and passions that come with being truly global makes the World Cup a nonpareil event in the universe of competitive sport.
足球是一项伟大的运动，丰富多样的风格和激情伴随真正的全球化而来，这使得世界杯在竞技体育领域成为一项不容小觑的赛事。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
A painting is a symbol for the universe. Inside it, each piece relates to the other. Each piece is only answerable to the rest of that little world. So, probably in the total universe, there is that kind of total harmony, but we get only little tastes of it.
一幅画是宇宙的象征。在它里面，每一块都与另一块相联系。每一块都只对那个小世界的其余部分负责。所以，也许在整个宇宙中，存在着那种完全的和谐，但我们只能尝到一点点。
The myths underlying our culture and underlying our common sense have not taught us to feel identical with the universe, but only parts of it, only in it, only confronting it - aliens.

Every science has for its basis a system of principles as fixed and unalterable as those by which the universe is regulated and governed. Man cannot make principles; he can only discover them.
每一门科学的基础都有一套固定不变的原则体系，就像宇宙受到这些原则的制约和支配一样。人不能制定原则;他只能发现它们。
Instruction ends in the schoolroom, but education ends only with life. A child is given to the universe to be educated.
教育止于学校，而教育止于生命。孩子是上天赐予的接受教育的对象。
