At twenty years of age, the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment. ( B. Franklin) 二十岁时起支配作用的是意志,三十岁时是机智,四十岁时是判断。(富兰克林) The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but what they miss. ( T. Carlyle ) 生活的悲剧不在于人们受到多少苦,而在于人们错过了什么。(卡莱尔) We grow neither better nor worse as we grow old but more like ourselves. ( M. L. Becker ) 随着年龄的增长,我们并不变得更好也不变得更坏,而是变得更象我们自己。(贝克尔) If a jewel falls into the mire, it remains as precious as before; and though dust should ascend to heaven, its former worthlessness will not be altered. (AL Jaber) 宝石即使落在泥潭里,仍是一样可贵;尘土纵然扬到天上,还是没有价值。(贾比尔) Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness. ( Strong) 与其诅咒黑暗,不如燃起蜡烛。(斯特郎) We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope. ( Martin Luther King, Jr.) 我们必须接受失望,因为它是有限的,但千万不可失去希望,因为它是无穷的。(马丁。路德。金) |
