Life is not fair, get used to it. 生活是不公平的;要去适应它。 The world won"t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. 这世界并不会在意你的自尊。这世界指望你在自我感觉良好之前先要有所成就。 You will not make 40 thousand dollars a year right out of high school. You won"t be a vice president with a car phone, until you earn both. 高中刚毕业你不会一年挣4万美元。你不会成为一个公司的副总裁，并拥有一部装有电话的汽车，直到你将此职位和汽车电话都挣到手。 If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss. He doesn"t have tenure. 如果你认为你的老师严厉，等你有了老板再这样想。老板可是没有任期限制的。 Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping; they called it opportunity. 烙牛肉饼并不有损你的尊严。你的祖父母对烙牛肉饼可有不同的定义;他们称它为机遇。 If you mess up, it"s not your parents" fault, so don"t whine about our mistakes, learn from them. 如果你陷入困境，那不是你父母的过错，所以不要尖声抱怨我们的错误，要从中吸取教训。 |
