A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
谎言
Falsehood
What's Done Can't Be Undone: In Life There Are Some Things Once Done Or Decisions Once Made Cannot Be changed; Malicious Words Once Uttered Or Harmful Actions Once Done Cannot Be Taken Back.
做过的事是无法挽回的:在生活中,有些事情一旦做了就无法挽回,有些决定一旦做了就无法改变;恶意的话一旦说出口,有害的行为一旦做了,就不能收回。
The main cause is a pernicious falsehood propagated against her being, namely that she is inferior by her nature. Inferior in what? What has man ever done that woman, under the same advantages could not do?
主要的原因是一种有害的谎言,传播反对她的存在,即她是劣等的性质。差在什么?在同样有利的条件下,男人做过那个女人不能做的事吗?
Falsehood is never so successful as when she baits her hook with truth, and no opinions so fatally mislead us, as those that are not wholly wrong; as no watches so effectually deceive the wearer as those that are sometimes right.
谎言最成功的时候,莫过于它用真理当鱼饵勾住自己的鱼钩;没有比那些有时是正确的手表更能有效地欺骗佩戴者的了。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Exaggeration is a blood relation to falsehood and nearly as blamable.
夸张是谎言的近亲,几乎同样应该受到谴责。
Truth will rise above falsehood as oil above water.
真理必浮于谎言之上,犹如油浮于水面。
Falsehood travels and grows.
谎言会四处传播和成长。
A liar begins with making falsehood appear like truth, and ends with making truth itself appear like falsehood.
撒谎者以使谎言看起来像真理一样开始,以使真理本身看起来像谎言一样结束。
He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.
无知的人比满脑子虚假和错误的人更接近真理。
This is the way of peace: Overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth, and hatred with love.
和平的道乃是这样:以善除恶,以真理除假,以爱除恨。
