A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
存在
Exist
The components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do.
在这个世界上,焦虑、压力、恐惧和愤怒的成分并不独立于你而存在。它们根本不存在于物质世界中,即使我们谈论它们时,仿佛它们存在一样。
Just as the wave cannot exist for itself, but is ever a part of the heaving surface of the ocean, so must I never live my life for itself, but always in the experience which is going on around me.
正如波浪不能为它自己而存在,而是永远是波涛汹涌的海面的一部分一样,我也决不能为它而活,而要永远活在我周围发生的经历中。
Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.
生命、自由和财产的存在并不是因为人们制定了法律。相反,正是生命、自由和财产在此之前就已经存在,这一事实促使人们首先制定法律。
But if nothing but soul, or in soul mind, is qualified to count, it is impossible for there to be time unless there is soul, but only that of which time is an attribute, i.e. if change can exist without soul.
但是,如果只有灵魂,或者在灵魂的意识里,才有资格去计算,那么,除非有灵魂,否则就不可能有时间,而只有时间是它的一种属性,也就是说,如果变化可以在没有灵魂的情况下存在的话。
You say something, things you would rather forget, and then they are out there. It makes me anxious and I don't know why people are interested in me anyway. If I had my way, I would rather exist in a little hole and not speak to anyone.
你说了一些,一些你宁愿忘记的事情,然后它们就出现了。这让我很焦虑,我不知道人们为什么对我感兴趣。如果我能随心所欲,我宁愿生活在一个小洞里,不和任何人说话。
When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
当人们谈论写作、说话或思考的自由时,我只能笑。从来没有这样的东西存在过。现在不存在这样的东西;但我希望它会存在。但这一定是在你我不再写信和说话之后的几百年以后了。
In short, no pattern is an isolated entity. Each pattern can exist in the world only to the extent that is supported by other patterns: the larger patterns in which it is embedded, the patterns of the same size that surround it, and the smaller patterns which are embedded in it.
简而言之,没有模式是孤立的实体。每种模式只能在其他模式支持的范围内存在:嵌入它的较大模式、与它相同大小的模式以及嵌入其中的较小模式。
Whether if soul did not exist time would exist or not, is a question that may fairly be asked; for if there cannot be someone to count there cannot be anything that can be counted, so that evidently there cannot be number; for number is either what has been, or what can be, counted.
如果灵魂不存在,时间是否会存在,这是一个可以公平地提出的问题;因为如果没有人可以数,就没有什么可以数的,所以显然就没有数字;因为数字不是已经被数过的,就是可以被数过的。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Films have never shown the kind of relationship that can exist between two women.
电影从来没有表现过两个女人之间可以存在的那种关系。
Law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice and when they fail in this purpose they become the dangerously structured dams that block the flow of social progress.
法律和秩序的存在是为了建立正义,而当它们在这一目标上失败时,就会成为阻碍社会进步的危险的结构性障碍。

The shouting and opinion and jokes don't exist if there isn't first a story.
如果没有第一个故事,叫喊、意见和笑话就不存在。
I don't think a true company - one that builds sustainable value - can ever only exist online or remotely.
我不认为一个真正的公司——一个建立可持续价值的公司——只能在网上或远程存在。
You can't be a woman and not be a feminist, I don't think. If you care about the world and the world you exist in and your rights.
你不可能既是女人又不是女权主义者,我不这么认为。如果你关心这个世界,关心你所生活的世界,关心你的权利。
