A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
信仰
Faith
When all is said and done, the greatest satisfaction you'll have in this life as you grow old will be seeing your children grow in righteousness and faith and goodness as citizens of the society of which they are a part.
当一切都说过了,做过了,当你年老时,你此生最大的满足将是看到你的孩子作为他们所属社会的公民,在正义、信仰和善良中成长。
The faith of a church or of a nation is an adequate faith only when it inspires and enables people to give of their time and energy to shape the various institutions -- social, economic, and political -- of the common life.
只有当一个教会或一个国家的信仰能够激励和使人们奉献出他们的时间和精力来塑造共同生活的各种制度——社会、经济和政治制度时,它才是一种充分的信仰。
I will not attack your doctrines nor your creeds if they accord liberty to me. If they hold thought to be dangerous - if they aver that doubt is a crime, then I attack them one and all, because they enslave the minds of men.
如果你们的教义和信条给了我自由,我就不会攻击它们。如果他们认为危险——如果他们断言怀疑是一种犯罪,那么我就会对他们进行全面的攻击,因为他们奴役了人类的思想。
Sometimes when I'm faced with an atheist, I am tempted to invite him to the greatest gourmet dinner that one could ever serve, and when we have finished eating that gourmet dinner, to ask him if he believes that there's a cook.
有时候,当我面对一个无神论者时,我很想邀请他吃一顿世上最好的美食,当我们吃完那顿美食后,我想问他是否相信有厨师。
We have no faith in ourselves. I have never met a woman who, deep down in her core, really believes she has great legs. And if she suspects that she might have great legs, then she's convinced that she has a shrill voice and no neck.
我们对自己没有信心。我从未见过一个女人,她内心深处真的相信自己有一双美腿。如果她怀疑自己可能有一双很棒的腿,那么她就确信自己有一副尖利的嗓音,没有脖子。
All things are inconstant except the faith in the soul, which changes all things and fills their inconstancy with light, but though I seem to be driven out of my country as a misbeliever I have found no man yet with a faith like mine.
万物都是无常的,惟有属灵的信心能改变万物,使万物充满光明。我虽然像一个不信的人,被赶出我的家乡,却找不着一个像我这样有信心的人。
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
In the spiritual body moreover, man appears such as he is with respect to love and faith, for everyone in the spiritual world is the effigy of his own love, not only as to the face and the body, but also as to the speech and the actions.
人在属灵的身体里,显出他的爱心和信心来。因为在属灵的世界里,人人都是自己爱心的像。不但在外貌和身体上是这样,在言语和行为上也是这样。
Man, I just feel blessed... I was in a situation where the only way I could come out of it was by putting my faith in God. No matter how good my lawyers were, no matter how much celebrity I had, everything was just stacked up against me.
伙计,我只是觉得很幸福…我当时的处境是,我唯一能走出困境的方法就是相信上帝。不管我的律师有多好,不管我有多出名,一切都对我不利。
Science has sometimes been said to be opposed to faith, and inconsistent with it. But all science, in fact, rests on a basis of faith, for it assumes the permanence and uniformity of natural laws - a thing which can never be demonstrated.
科学有时被说成是与信仰对立的,而且与信仰不一致。但事实上,所有的科学都建立在信仰的基础上,因为它假定自然规律的持久性和统一性——这是永远无法证明的。
Faith is an excitement and an enthusiasm: it is a condition of intellectual magnificence to which we must cling as to a treasure, and not squander on our way through life in the small coin of empty words, or in exact and priggish argument.
信仰是一种兴奋和热情:它是一种智力上的辉煌,我们必须紧紧抓住它,就像抓住一件珍宝一样。我们不能在人生的道路上,浪费在那些空洞的小钱上,也不能浪费在一本正经的辩论上。
The only angels we need invoke are those of our better nature: reason, honesty, and love. The only demons we must fear are those that lurk inside every human mind: ignorance, hatred, greed, and faith, which is surely the devil's masterpiece.
我们唯一需要召唤的天使是那些本性更好的天使:理性、诚实和爱。我们唯一必须害怕的恶魔是潜伏在每个人内心的那些恶魔:无知、仇恨、贪婪和信仰,这无疑是恶魔的杰作。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.
祷告,好像一切都仰赖神。像一切都取决于你一样工作。
You were born a child of light’s wonderful secret— you return to the beauty you have always been.
你出生在光的奇妙秘密的孩子-你回到你一直是美丽的。
Much faith will yield unto us here our heaven, but any faith, if true, will yield us heaven hereafter.
在这里,许多信心会使我们的天堂屈服,但是,任何信心,如果是真实的,将使我们在未来的天堂屈服。
Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.
在信心上迈出第一步。你不需要看到整个楼梯,只需要迈出第一步。
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
所有的金子都不会发光, 并不是所有流浪的人都迷路了; 强壮的老人不会枯萎, 霜打不到深根。 将从灰烬中唤醒一团火, 从阴影里射出的光; 折断的刀必重新折断, 无冕者将再次称王。
Fear is the lack of faith in one's ability to create powerful solutions.
恐惧是对自己创造强大解决方案的能力缺乏信心。
