A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
现在
Present
If the Negroes are to remain forever removed from the producing atmosphere, and the present discrimination continues, there will be nothing left for them to do.
如果黑人永远被排除在生产环境之外,而且目前的歧视还在继续,他们就没有什么可做的了。
In the world of the present, in our time, we feel that suffering, anguish, the torments of body and soul, are greater than ever before in the history of mankind.
在当今世界,在我们这个时代,我们感到人类历史上前所未有的苦难、痛苦、肉体和灵魂的折磨。
Solitude is not something you must hope for in the future. Rather, it is a deepening of the present, and unless you look for it in the present you will never find it.
孤独不是你将来必须希望的东西。相反,它是对当下的深化,除非你在当下寻找它,否则你永远不会找到它。
To me, living in the present means being aware of your conscious choice to focus on the past, present or future - it is not necessarily having to focus on the present.
对我来说,活在当下意味着意识到你有意识地选择关注过去、现在或未来——不一定要关注现在。
Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine.

People sacrifice the present for the future. But life is available only in the present. That is why we should walk in such a way that every step can bring us to the here and the now.
人们为了未来牺牲现在。但生命只存在于当下。这就是为什么我们应该这样走路,每一步都能把我们带到此时此地。
I have become my own version of an optimist. If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door - or I'll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.
我成了自己版本的乐观主义者。如果我不能通过一扇门,我会通过另一扇门——或者我要做一扇门。无论现在多么黑暗,可怕的事情总会发生。
The present assault upon capital is but the beginning. It will be but a stepping-stone to others, larger and more sweeping, till our political contests will become a war of the poor against the rich.
目前对资本的攻击仅仅是个开始。在我们的政治竞争变成一场穷人对富人的战争之前,它只是别人更大、更广泛的踏脚石。
