A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
宇宙
Universe
Today we no longer regard the universe as the cause of our own undeserved troubles but perhaps, on the contrary, as the last refuge from the mismanagement of our earthly affairs.
今天,我们不再把宇宙看作是我们自己不应该遇到的麻烦的根源,相反,也许我们把宇宙看作是我们对尘世事务管理不善的最后避难所。
The fact that one can lose one's sense of self in an ocean of tranquility does not mean that one's consciousness is immaterial or that it presided over the birth of the universe.
一个人可以在一片宁静的海洋中失去自我意识,这并不意味着他的意识是非物质的,也不意味着他的意识主导了宇宙的诞生。
The chess-board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us.
棋盘宛如世界,一个个棋子仿佛世间的种种现象,游戏规则就是我们所称的自然法则。另一边的球员对我们隐藏起来了。
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.
我们的文化和常识背后的神话并没有教会我们与宇宙有相同的感觉,而只是宇宙的一部分,只是其中的一部分,只是面对它——外星人。
Look out into the universe and contemplate the glory of God. Observe the stars, millions of them, twinkling in the night sky, all with a message of unity, part of the very nature of God.
望向宇宙,默想神的荣耀。观察星星,数以百万计的星星,在夜空中闪烁,所有的星星都传达着统一的信息,这是上帝本性的一部分。
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。
I think the driving thing was curiosity about the universe. That fascinated me. I didn't think anything about being famous or anything like that, I was just interested in the concepts involved.
我认为最重要的是对宇宙的好奇心。这使我着迷。我没有想过要出名之类的,我只是对其中的概念感兴趣。
If the pursuit of peace is both old and new, it is also both complicated and simple. It is complicated, for it has to do with people, and nothing in this universe baffles man as much as man himself.
如果说追求和平是新与旧的,那么它也是复杂与简单的。它是复杂的,因为它与人有关,在这个宇宙中没有什么比人自己更让人困惑。
Works of art, in my opinion, are the only objects in the material universe to possess internal order, and that is why, though I don't believe that only art matters, I do believe in Art for Art's sake.
在我看来,艺术作品是物质世界中唯一具有内在秩序的对象,这就是为什么,虽然我不认为只有艺术才重要,但我相信艺术是为了艺术而艺术。
Virtually every scientist now concedes that universe and time itself had beginning. So, whatever begins to exist has a cause. The universe began to exist. Therefore, the universe must have had a cause.
现在几乎每个科学家都承认宇宙和时间本身已经开始。所以,任何开始存在的事物都是有原因的。宇宙开始存在。因此,宇宙一定是有原因的。
I am very excited to be supporting one of the world's most visionary efforts to seek basic answers to some of the fundamental question about our universe and what other civilisations may exist elsewhere.
我很高兴能够支持世界上最具远见的努力之一,为有关我们的宇宙以及其他地方可能存在何种其他文明的一些基本问题寻求基本答案。
If the universe is running down like a clock, the clock must have been wound up at a date which we could name if we knew it. The world, if it is to have an end in time, must have had a beginning in time.
如果宇宙像时钟一样慢下来,那么时钟一定是在一个我们知道的日期上发条的。世界若要在时间上有终结,就必须在时间上有开始。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I have not proved that the universe is, in fact, a digital computer and that it's capable of performing universal computation, but it's plausible that it is.
我还没有证明宇宙实际上是一台数字计算机,它有能力执行通用计算,但这似乎是合理的。
The Universe is not outside of you. Look inside yourself; everything that you want, you already are.
宇宙不在你的外部。审视自己;你想要的一切,你都已经拥有了。
Through space the universe encompasses and swallows me up like an atom; through thought I comprehend the world.
宇宙在太空中像一个原子一样包围并吞噬着我;我通过思想了解世界。
Everything you'll ever need to know is within you; the secrets of the universe are imprinted on the cells of your body.
你需要知道的一切都在你的内心;宇宙的秘密印在你身体的细胞上。
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.
我们将建造新的飞船载着人类进入宇宙,在月球上获得新的立足点,并为去我们自己之外的世界的新旅程做好准备。
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。
