A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
希望
Hope
If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream.
如果你失去了希望,某种程度上,你失去了让生活继续前进的活力,你失去了勇气,失去了帮助你继续前行的品质。所以今天我仍然有一个梦想。
If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair.
如果你寻求真理,最终你会找到安慰;如果你寻求安慰,你将不会得到安慰或真相,只有软肥皂和一厢情愿的想法开始,最终,绝望。
Hope is both the earliest and the most indispensable virtue inherent in the state of being alive. If life is to be sustained hope must remain, even where confidence is wounded, trust impaired.
希望是活着的状态所固有的最早的和最不可缺少的美德。如果要维持生命,就必须保持希望,即使信心受损,信任也会受损。
When you do nothing, you feel overwhelmed and powerless. But when you get involved, you feel the sense of hope and accomplishment that comes from knowing you are working to make things better.
当你什么都不做时,你会感到不知所措和无能为力。但当你参与其中时,你会感到希望和成就感,因为你知道自己在努力把事情做得更好。
Courage is sometimes frail as hope is frail: a fragile shoot between two stones that grows brave toward the sun though warmth and brightness fail, striving and faith the only strength it knows.
勇气有时像希望一样脆弱:它是两颗石头之间脆弱的一颗,尽管温暖和光明都已消逝,它仍勇敢地向着太阳生长;它所知道的唯一力量是奋斗和信念。
I never intended to be a professional writer; as the story developed, the one thing I had in my hopes was that this would be something tangible to separate me from the nameless, numbered masses.
我从来没有想过要成为一名职业作家;随着故事的发展,我所希望的一件事是,这将是一种有形的东西,把我从无名的、数量众多的人群中分离出来。
He who has faith has... an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well - even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly.
有信仰的人就有……一种内在的勇气、希望、自信、冷静和自信的储藏库,相信一切都会好起来——即使对世界来说,结果可能是最糟糕的。
We hope that this honor you have done us will bring the time of further realization of these benefits closer and will help all mankind to live better and be happier through the atom and isotopes.
我们希望,你们给我们的这一荣誉将使进一步实现这些利益的时间更近,并将通过原子和同位素帮助全人类生活得更好和更幸福。
Even private persons in due season, with discretion and temper, may reprove others, whom they observe to commit sin, or follow bad courses, out of charitable design, and with hope to reclaim them.
即使是个人,到了适当的时候,如果他观察到别人犯了罪,或循着坏的道路行了善事,希望能改过自新,他也会谨慎而有节制地责备他们。
Between the fear that something would happen and the hope that still it wouldn't, there is much more space than one thinks. On that narrow, hard, bare and dark space a lot of us spend their lives.
在对某事会发生的恐惧和对它不会发生的希望之间,存在着比人们想象的多得多的空间。在那狭窄、坚硬、空旷和黑暗的空间里,我们许多人度过了他们的一生。
People crushed by laws, have no hope but to evade power. If the laws are their enemies, they will be enemies to the law; and those who have most to hope and nothing to lose will always be dangerous.
被法律压垮的人,没有希望,只能逃避权力。如果法律是他们的敌人,他们就会成为法律的敌人;而那些拥有最多希望却一无所有的人将永远是危险的。
Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle. The modern industrial proletariat does not belong to the category of such classes.
绝望是那些不了解罪恶的根源,看不到出路,也没有能力斗争的人的典型特征。现代工业无产阶级不属于这类阶级。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
‘Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!’ cries she With silent lips. ‘Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me; I lift my lamp beside the golden door.’
“保留古老的土地,你那传奇的盛况!”她用沉默的嘴唇喊道。“给我你那疲倦的、可怜的、挤成一团渴望自由呼吸的群众,给我你那熙熙攘攘的岸边可怜的垃圾。把这些,无家可归的人,被暴风雨袭击的人,寄给我;我在金色的门边举起我的灯。”
I can't go on. I'll go on.
我不能再继续了。我将继续。
A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.
一个好的老师可以激发希望,激发想象力,并灌输对学习的热爱。
There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state to another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.
世界上没有幸福,也没有痛苦;只有一种状态与另一种状态的比较,仅此而已。感受过最深悲伤的人,最能体会到最大的幸福。我们必须体验过死亡的滋味,才能体会到生活的乐趣。
Once you choose hope, anything's possible.
一旦你选择了希望,一切皆有可能。
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life. And the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle. As with all matters of the heart you'll know when you find it.
你的工作将占据你生活的很大一部分。真正满足的唯一方法是做你认为是伟大的工作。做伟大工作的唯一方法就是热爱你所做的。如果你还没有找到,继续找,不要停下来。当你找到它的时候,你会全心全意地去做。
