20世纪最重要的政治领袖之一，英国民众心中最伟大的英国人，近百年来最有说服力的演说家之一——这只是丘吉尔“定义的一部分。据传，他是世界上英语词汇量最大的人之一，他还于1953年凭借《第二次世界大战回忆录》获得过诺贝尔文学奖。他的名言不仅充满哲理，而且简洁优美，是学习英语的好材料。 1. Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. 成功只是片刻，失败也不致命。继续前行的勇气，才最可贵。 2. A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. 悲观主义者在每个机会里看到困难。乐观主义者在每个困难里看到机会。 3. Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen. 勇气是能站起来侃侃而谈。勇气也是能坐下来静静倾听。 4. You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.你有敌人?很好。这说明在某个时刻，你曾有自己的立场。 5. History will be kind to me for I intend to write it. 历史对我不错，因为都是我写的。 6. Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. |
