A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
幸福
Happiness
The older I get, the more I see that there really aren't huge zeniths of happiness or a huge abyss of darkness as much as there used to be. I tend to walk a middle ground.
随着年龄的增长，我越来越清楚地认识到，幸福的极顶和黑暗的深渊并不像以前那么大了。我倾向于走中间路线。
Man's happiness springs mainly from moderate troubles, which afford the mind a healthful stimulus, and are followed by a reaction which produces a cheerful flow of spirits.
人的幸福主要来自适度的烦恼，适度的烦恼给人的心灵以健康的刺激，随之产生的反应使人精神愉快。
The heart and core of everything here is good, that whatever may be the surface waves, deep down and underlying everything, there is an infinite basis of goodness and love.
这里一切的心和核心都是好的，无论表面的波浪是什么，在深处和底层的一切，都有一个无限的基础的善良和爱。
Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it.
人喜欢计算自己的烦恼，却不计算自己的快乐。如果他按照他应该做的那样去数一数，他就会发现，每一种命运都为它提供了足够的幸福。
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.
人们发现很难快乐的原因是他们总是看到过去比过去更好，现在比现在更糟，未来比将来更不确定。
There is some kind of a sweet innocence in being human- in not having to be just happy or just sad- in the nature of being able to be both broken and whole, at the same time.
作为一个人，有一种甜蜜的纯真——不必只是快乐或悲伤——同时破碎和完整的本性。
Man is not, by nature, deserving of all that he wants. When we think that we are automatically entitled to something, that is when we start walking all over others to get it.
人的本性不值得他想要的一切。当我们认为自己理所当然地有权得到某样东西时，那就是我们为了得到它而开始践踏他人的时候。
Those who are not looking for happiness are the most likely to find it, because those who are searching forget that the surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others.
那些不寻找幸福的人最有可能找到幸福，因为那些正在寻找幸福的人忘记了，获得幸福最可靠的方法就是为他人寻找幸福。
But the struggles make you stronger, the changes make you wiser, and happiness has its own way of taking its sweet time. Life isn't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride.
但是奋斗使你更坚强，变化使你更明智，幸福有它自己的方式来享受它的甜蜜时光。生活并不总是美好的，但它是一段美好的旅程。
Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.
幸福就像一只蝴蝶。你越追它，它就越躲避你，但如果你把注意力转向其他事情，它就会过来，轻轻地坐在你的肩膀上。
Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything - anger, anxiety, or possessions - we cannot be free.
放手给我们自由，自由是幸福的唯一条件。如果我们的内心仍然执着于任何东西——愤怒、焦虑或财产——我们就无法获得自由。
The whole universe is only the self with variations, one tune made bearable by variations. Sometimes there are discords, but they only make the subsequent harmony more perfect.
整个宇宙只是变化着的自我，一个可以被变化所忍受的曲调。有时会有不和谐，但它们只会使随后的和谐更加完美。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you.
人生苦短，不要把时间花在那些榨干你快乐的人身上。
All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.
所有的幸福或不幸都完全取决于我们所爱之物的性质。
Happiness does not depend on outward circumstances, but on the state of the heart.
幸福不在于外在的环境，而在于内心的状态。
Success follows those who champion a cause greater than themselves.
成功来自那些为比自己更伟大的事业奋斗的人。
I love acting. It's my playground, it let's me explore. But my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.
我喜欢表演。这是我的游乐场，它让我探索。但是我在这个世界上的幸福——我的和平水平——永远不会由行动来决定。
Nothing lasts forever, Neither bad nor good.
没有什么是永恒的，无论是好是坏。
