A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

危险

Dangerous

There is no man more dangerous, in a position of power, than he who refuses to accept as a working truth the idea that all a man does should make for rightness and soundness, that even the fixing of a tariff rate must be moral.

如果一个人认为一个人所做的一切都应该是正确和可靠的,即使是确定一个关税税率也必须是合乎道德的,那么他拒绝接受这一观点,认为这是一个处于权力地位的人所面临的最大危险。

If you have only one passion in life - football - and you pursue it to the exclusion of everything else, it becomes very dangerous. When you stop doing this activity it is as though you are dying. The death of that activity is a death in itself.

如果你在生活中只有一种激情——足球——你不顾一切地追求它,它就会变得非常危险。当你停止做这件事的时候,就好像你正在死去。活动的死亡本身就是死亡。

You take a number of small steps which you believe are right, thinking maybe tomorrow somebody will treat this as a dangerous provocation. And then you wait. If there is no reaction, you take another step: courage is only an accumulation of small steps.

你采取了一些你认为是正确的小步骤,想着也许明天有人会把这当作一种危险的挑衅。然后你等待。如果没有反应,你就会迈出另一步:勇气只是一小步的积累。

Be careful in dealing with a man who cares nothing for comfort or promotion, but is simply determined to do what he believes to be right. He is a dangerous uncomfortable enemy, because his body, which you can always conquer, gives you little purchase upon his soul.

与一个不在乎舒适或晋升,而只是决心做他认为正确的事情的人打交道时,要小心。他是一个危险的、令人不安的敌人,因为他的身体,你总是可以征服的,却无法从他的灵魂中得到什么。
