A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

邪恶

Evil

Life has a bright side and a dark side, for the world of relativity is composed of light and shadows. If you permit your thoughts to dwell on evil, you yourself will become ugly. Look only for the good in everything so you absorb the quality of beauty.

生活有光明的一面和黑暗的一面,因为相对论的世界是由光和影组成的。如果你让你的思想停留在邪恶上,你自己也会变得丑陋。只看事物好的一面,这样你就能吸收美的品质。

We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.

我们必须发展和保持宽恕的能力。没有宽恕的能力,就没有爱的能力。我们最坏的一面也有好的一面,最好的一面也有坏的一面。当我们发现这一点时,我们就不那么容易憎恨敌人了。

In seeking to avoid evil, [humanity] is responsible for bringing more evil into the world than organisms could ever do merely by exercising their digestive tracts. It is [our] ingenuity, rather than [our] animal nature, that has given [our] fellow creatures such a bitter earthly fate.

在寻求避免邪恶的过程中,(人类)有责任把更多的邪恶带到这个世界上,这比生物体仅仅通过锻炼消化道所能做的还要多。是(我们的)独创性,而不是(我们的)动物性,给了(我们的)同伴如此痛苦的尘世命运。

What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.

认为伪善是罪恶的罪恶是如此合情合理的原因在于,除了这一种罪恶外,其他所有罪恶的背后都隐藏着正直。的确,只有犯罪和罪犯才使我们面对极端邪恶的困惑;但是只有伪君子才真正腐败到极点。
