A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
格蕾丝
Grace
At its best, the sensation of writing is that of any unmerited grace. It is handed to you, but only if you look for it.
在最好的情况下,写作的感觉是任何不值得的优雅。它是给你的,但前提是你去寻找它。
Jesus wept; Voltaire smiled. From that divine tear and from that human smile is derived the grace of present civilization.
耶稣哭了。伏尔泰笑了。从那神圣的眼泪和人类的微笑中,产生了现代文明的优雅。
I do not at all understand the mystery of grace - only that it meets us where we are but does not leave us where it found us.
我一点也不明白恩典的奥秘——只知道它在我们所在的地方遇见我们,却不把我们留在它发现我们的地方。
Humanism and Divinity are as complementary to one another in theorder of culture, as are Nature and Grace in the order of being.

Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves.

The genius of a good leader is to leave behind him a situation which common sense, without the grace of genius, can deal with successfully.

Without vanity, without coquetry, without curiosity, in a word, without the fall, woman would not be woman. Much of her grace is in her frailty.
没有虚荣心,没有卖弄风情,没有好奇心,一句话,没有堕落,女人就不会是女人。她的优雅主要在于她的脆弱。
Youth, large, lusty, loving - Youth, full of grace, force, fascination. Do you know that Old Age may come after you with equal grace, force, fascination?

Humility is a grace that shines in a high condition but cannot, equally, in a low one because a person in the latter is already, perhaps, too much humbled.
谦卑是一种优雅,它在高尚的环境中闪耀光芒,但在卑微的环境中却无法同样闪耀光芒,因为一个人在卑微的环境中可能已经过于谦卑了。
Oh, you weak, beautiful people who give up with such grace. What you need is someone to take hold of you - gently, with love, and hand your life back to you.
哦,你们这些柔弱而美丽的人,他们如此优雅地放弃了。你所需要的是一个人来抓住你——温柔地,带着爱,把你的生活还给你。
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude.

Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.
任何让我们放慢脚步、迫使我们保持耐心的事情,任何让我们重新回到大自然的慢循环中的事情,都是有帮助的。园艺是优雅的工具。
