A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

回来

Back

I did study the art of being a barber because I wanted to figure out what my routine would be. Do you start in the front or back? Top or bottom? Swivel the chair or walk around? What I did discover is there's no such thing as the perfect haircut!

我确实学习了理发的艺术,因为我想弄清楚我的日常工作是什么。你从前面开始还是从后面开始?顶部或底部?旋转椅子还是四处走走?我发现根本就没有完美的发型!

It is true that the poet does not directly address his neighbors; but he does address a great congress of persons who dwell at the back of his mind, a congress of all those who have taught him and whom he has admired; they constitute his ideal audience and his better self.

诚然,诗人并不直接对他的邻居说话;但是,他确实是在一个伟大的大会上发表演说,这个大会的成员都住在他的思想深处,这个大会的成员都是那些曾经教过他,他也曾钦佩过他的人;他们构成了他理想的听众和更好的自己。

KEEP EXPLORING

沿着这个主题,再读几句。

South Africa gives me a perspective of what's real and what's not real. So I go back to South Africa to both lose myself and gain awareness of myself. Every time I go back, it doesn't take long for me to get caught into a very different thing. A very different sense of myself.

南非让我看到了什么是真实的,什么不是。所以我回到南非,既迷失了自我,又重新认识了自己。每次我回去,很快就会陷入一种完全不同的状态。一种完全不同的自我感觉。

A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

给此刻的你,一点向前的力量。

继续读好句 ↗

关于学习、善意与成长,读一句,再想一想。

Most adults, unlike most children, understand the difference between a book that will hold them spellbound for a rainy Sunday afternoon and a book that will put them in touch with a part of themselves they didn't even know existed.

与大多数孩子不同的是,大多数成年人都能理解一本书和一本书之间的区别,前者能让他们在一个下雨的周日下午如痴如醉,而后者则能让他们接触到自己甚至不知道存在的一部分。
