A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

善良

Kindness

善意既体现在言语里,也体现在愿意理解与帮助他人的行动中。这些语句围绕体谅、分享和尊重展开。

It may take practice to think more positively and more compassionately, but just as you must train a puppy to behave the way you want it to, you must train your mind to behave itself. Otherwise, like the puppy, your mind will just make a lot of messes.

要想更积极、更富有同情心地思考可能需要练习,但就像你必须训练一只小狗按照你想要的方式行事一样,你也必须训练你的思维让它按照自己的意愿行事。否则,就像小狗一样,你的大脑会搞得一团糟。

To desire and strive to be of some service to the world, to aim at doing something which shall really increase the happiness and welfare and virtue of mankind - this is a choice which is possible for all of us; and surely it is a good haven to sail for.

渴望并努力为世界做些贡献,致力于做一些真正能增加人类幸福、福祉和美德的事情——这是我们所有人都可能做出的选择;毫无疑问,这是一个航行的好地方。

If you want happiness for an hour - take a nap. If you want happiness for a day - go fishing. If you want happiness for a month - get married. If you want happiness for a year - inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime - help someone else.

如果你想快乐一小时,那就打个盹吧。如果你想快乐一天,去钓鱼吧。如果你想快乐一个月,那就结婚吧。如果你想快乐一年,那就继承一大笔财产吧。如果你想一生幸福——帮助别人。

I don't want to make that sound like I'm preaching from a mountain top when I say you have to give your family everything, because I know it's hard for people. I'm lucky to be in a position where you can establish those ground rules and make it that way.

我不想让这听起来像我在山顶说教,当我说你必须给你的家人一切,因为我知道这对人们来说很难。我很幸运能处在这样一个位置,你可以建立这些基本规则,并使之成为现实。

We want a society in which we are free to make choices, to make mistakes, to be generous and compassionate. That is what we mean by a moral society - not a society in which the State is responsible for everything, and no one is responsible for the State.

我们想要一个我们可以自由选择、犯错、慷慨和富有同情心的社会。这就是我们所说的道德社会——不是一个国家对一切负责,没有人对国家负责的社会。

When kindness has left people, even for a few moments, we become afraid of them as if their reason had left them. When it has left a place where we have always found it, it is like shipwreck; we drop from security into something malevolent and bottomless.

当善良离开了人们,哪怕只有一小会儿,我们也会害怕他们,好像他们的理智已经离开了他们。当它离开了一个我们总是能找到它的地方,它就像沉船;我们从安全堕落到邪恶和无底的东西。
