A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
信条
Creed
Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create that fact.
不要害怕生活。相信生活是有价值的，你的信念会帮助你创造出这样的事实。
The brute necessity of believing something so long as life lasts does not justify any belief in particular.
只要生命存在，就必须相信某种东西，这种残忍的必要性并不特别证明任何信仰是正当的。
The moral law commands us to make the highest possible good in a world the final object of all our conduct.
道德律要求我们把世界上可能达到的最高善作为我们一切行为的最终目标。
Let us revere, let us worship, but erect and open-eyed, the highest, not the lowest; the future, not the past!
让我们崇敬，让我们崇拜，但要挺直腰板，睁大眼睛，高高在上，而不是最低微;未来，而不是过去!
I love my past. I love my present. I'm not ashamed of what I've had, and I'm not sad because I have it no longer.
我爱我的过去。我喜欢我的礼物。我不为我所拥有的感到羞耻，我也不悲伤，因为我不再拥有它。
I take as my guide the hope of a saint: in crucial things, unity; in important things, diversity; in all things, generosity.
我以圣人的希望为指导:在关键的事情上，团结一致;在重要的事情上，多样性;凡事慷慨。
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
始终致力于思想、言语和行为的完全和谐。时刻致力于净化你的思想，一切都会好起来的。
My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it's on your plate -- that's my philosophy.
我给你的建议不是问为什么或去哪里，而是享受你盘子里的冰淇淋——这就是我的哲学。
It is a curious thing... that every creed promises a paradise which will be absolutely uninhabitable for anyone of civilized taste.
这是一件奇怪的事情……每一种信仰都承诺有一个天堂，绝对不适合任何有文明品味的人居住。
Nor knowest thou what argument Thy life to thy neighbor's creed has lent. All are needed by each one; Nothing is fair or good alone.
你也不知道什么理由 你的生命为你邻居的信仰提供了帮助。 每个人都需要一切; 没有什么是公平的，也没有什么是好的。
I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do.
我只是一个人，但我就是一个人。我不能做所有的事，但我能做一些事。我不会让我不能做的事妨碍我能做的事。
Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy; you can't build on it; it's only for wallowing in.
把永不后悔、永不后悔作为生活的准则。后悔是一种可怕的精力浪费;你不能依赖它;它只是用来打滚的。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
There are two Newman's laws. The first one is "It is useless to put on your brakes when you're upside down." The second is "Just when things look darkest, they go black."
有两个纽曼定律。第一个是“当你倒着的时候，踩刹车是没有用的。”第二个是“当事情看起来最黑暗的时候，它们就会变黑。”
All the lessons of history in four sentences: Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad with power. The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small. The bee fertilizes the flower it robs. When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.
历史的全部教训用四句话概括: 神要谁灭亡，必先使谁因势力而发狂。 天网恢恢，疏而不漏。天网恢恢，疏而不漏。 蜜蜂使它抢夺的花受精。 当足够黑的时候，你可以看到星星。
Do what you can. Want what you have. Be who you are.
尽你所能。想要你所拥有的。做你自己。
The creed of a true saint is to make the best of life, and to make the most of it.
真正圣人的信条是充分利用生活，并充分利用生活。
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy
耶和华阿，求你使我作你平安的器皿。哪里有仇恨，就让我播下爱的种子;哪里有伤害，哪里就宽恕;哪里有怀疑，哪里就有信仰;哪里有绝望，哪里就有希望;哪里有黑暗，哪里就有光明;哪里有悲伤，哪里就有快乐
Never forget that the purpose for which a man lives is the improvement of the man himself, so that he may go out of this world having, in his great sphere or his small one, done some little good for his fellow creatures and labored a little to diminish the sin and sorrow that are in the world.
不要忘记一个人的生活的目的是改善人类自身,所以,他可能离开这个世界,在他伟大的球或小,做一些有利于他的生物和有点困难减少世界上的罪恶和悲伤。
