A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
信条
Creed
Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth. I said then and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; while there is a criminal element, I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.
多年前,我认识到我与所有生物都有亲缘关系,我下定决心,我不比地球上最卑贱的人强一点点。我当时说过,现在也说过,只要有下层阶级,我就在其中;只要有犯罪的成分,我也有;只要有一个灵魂在监狱里,我就没有自由。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
However mean your life is, meet it and live it: do not shun it and call it hard names. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Things do not change, we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不论你的生活如何卑贱,你要面对它生活,不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧。不要麻烦自己去找新的东西,无论是衣服还是朋友。万物不变,是我们在变。卖掉你的衣服,保留你的思想。
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。
Science commits suicide when it adopts a creed.
科学一旦采纳了某种信条,就等于自杀。
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。
There are no creeds in mathematics.
数学中没有信条。
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。
