英语哲理美文摘抄篇一
Winnie the Pooh 小熊维尼的人生哲学
真情永相依
If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so I never have to live without you.
假如你的寿命是100年,那我希望自己活到100岁的前一天,因为那样我的生命中每天都有你。
If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever.
如果有一天我们不能在一起了,那么请把我放在你心里,我将永驻于此。
Promise me you'll never forget me because if I thought you would I'd never leave.
答应我你永远不会忘记我,因为我一想到你会忘了我,我就不想离开你了。
If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together...there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...I'll always be with you.
假如明天我们不能在一起,那我希望你能记得这些:你比自己所相信的更勇敢,比所展现的更坚强,比所认为的更聪慧。另外最重要的是,即使我们不得不分离,我依然与你同在。
世界你我他
You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
你不能躲在林中的角落里等着别人来找你,有时你必须自己去找他们。
If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.
如果你诉说的对象看上去没在听你讲话,别着急,也许他只是要清理一下耳朵。
A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference.
多给别人一些体谅,多为别人考虑一点,那将让一切截然不同。
Just because an animal is large, it doesn't mean he doesn't want kindness; however big Tigger seems to be, remember that he wants as much kindness as Roo.
不是说体型大的动物就不向往温情;无论跳跳虎看上去多庞大,请记住他需要的关怀和小豆一样多。
Tigger:维尼家族中的跳跳虎
Roo:维尼家族中的小袋鼠小豆
生活不匆忙
Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.
河流懂得一个道理:无需匆忙。该到的地方终有一天会到达。
Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.
有时倘若你站在桥最下面一根栏杆上,弯腰看河水从你身下缓缓流过,你会突然顿悟一切。
Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.
不要低估了“无所事事”的价值——就这么走走,聆听耳朵无法听到的声音,无忧无虑的,这些就很有价值。
When late morning rolls around and you're feeling a bit out of sorts, don't worry; you're probably just a little eleven o'clockish.
如果到了上午晚些时候而你觉得有些没精打采,别担心,你很可能只是处于“11点状态”。
在小熊维尼的故事里,维尼的钟总是停在11点,而每次他看钟时就会说:“啊,是时候吃点东西了。”几年以前在英国,有种在11点享用的饮料和点心非常普遍,就叫做“elevenses”。
做个聪明人
To the uneducated, an A is just three sticks.
对于一个没文化的人,A这个字母不过是三根棒子罢了。
You can't help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn't spell it right; but spelling isn't everything. There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn't count.
你不得不佩服那些能够拼写TUESDAY这个单词的人,即使他根本没有拼对。但是拼写并非一切,有些时候它完全没有价值。
Before beginning a hunt, it is wise to ask someone what you are looking for before you begin looking for it.
当你要开始搜寻东西时,明智的做法是先问清你应该找什么。
I used to believe in forever, but "forever" is too good to be true.
我过去一直相信有永远,但是“永远”只是个美好而不真实的东西。
英语哲理美文摘抄篇二
How Small People Make A Big Difference?小人物大成就
Repression
Today, as I was relaxing at the beach, I couldn't help but eavesdrop on a conversation four high school kids we having on the beach blanket next to me. Their conversation was about making a positive difference in the world. And it went something like this…
"It's impossible to make a difference unless you're a huge corporation or someone with lots of money and power," one of them said.
"Yeah man," another replied. "My mom keeps telling me to move mountains – to speak up and stand up for what I believe. But what I say and do doesn't even get noticed. I just keep answering to ‘the man’ and then I get slapped back in place by him when I step out of line."
"Repression…" another snickered.
I smiled because I knew exactly how they felt. When I was their age, I was certain I was being repressed and couldn't possibly make a difference in this world. And I actually almost got expelled from school once because I openly expressed how repressed I felt in the middle of the principals’ office.
I Have A Dream
Suddenly, one of the kids noticed me eavesdropping and smiling. He sat up, looked at me and said, "What? Do you disagree?" Then as he waited for a response, the other three kids turned around too.
Rather than arguing with them, I took an old receipt out of my wallet, ripped it into four pieces, and wrote a different word on each piece. Then I crumbled the pieces into little paper balls and handed a different piece to each one of them.
"Look at the word on the paper I just gave you and don't show it to anyone else." The kids looked at the single word I had handed each of them and appeared confused. "You have two choices," I told them. "If your word inspired you to make a difference in this world, then hold onto it. If not, give it back to me so I can recycle the paper." They all returned their words.
I scooted over, sat down on the sand next to their beach blanket and laid out the four words that the students had returned to me so that the words combined to form the simple sentence, "I have a dream."
"Dude, that's Martin Luther King Jr.," one of the kids said.
"How did you know that?" I asked.
"Everyone knows Martin Luther King Jr." the kid snarled. "He has his own national holiday, and we all had to memorize his speech in school a few years ago."
"Why do you think your teachers had you memorize his speech?" I asked.
"I don't really care!" the kid replied. His three friends shook their heads in agreement. "What does this have to do with us and our situation?"
"Your teachers asked you to memorize those words, just like thousands of teachers around the world have asked students to memorize those words, because they have inspired millions of repressed people to dream of a better world and take action to make their dreams come true. Do you see where I'm going with this?"
"Man, I know exactly what you're trying to do and it's not going to work, alright?" the fourth kid said, who hadn't spoken a word until now. "We're not going to get all inspired and emotional about something some dude said thirty years ago. Our world is different now. And it's more screwed up than any us can even begin to imagine, and there's little you or I can do about it. We're too small, we're nobody."
Together
I smiled again because I once believed and used to say similar things. Then after holding the smile for a few seconds I said, "On their own, ‘I' or ‘have’ or ‘a’ or ‘dream’ are just words. Not very compelling or inspiring. But when you put them together in a certain order, they create a phrase that has been powerful enough to move millions of people to take action – action that changed laws, perceptions, and lives. You don't need to be inspired or emotional to agree with this, do you?"
The four kids shrugged and struggled to appear totally indifferent, but I could tell they were listening intently. "And what's true for words is also true for people," I continued. "One person without help from anyone else can't do much to make a sizable difference in this crazy world - or to overcome all of the various forms of repression that exist today. But when people get together and unite to form something more powerful and meaningful then themselves, the possibilities are endless.
Together is how mountains are moved. Together is how small people make a big difference.
英语哲理美文摘抄篇三
A tourist or a traveller? 你是个旅游者还是旅行者?
Are you a tourist, or a traveller?
And more importantly: who cares? It's such a stupid question.
There are people out there who truly believe they're doing their travel in a way that's fundamentally "better" than everyone else, but they're kidding themselves. Really, we're all just out there taking time off from our jobs to spend some of our money – we're all essentially the same.
It's cool to think you're a "traveller" though. There was even a credit card company running a campaign recently with the slogan "Are you a tourist or a traveller?" Because apparently using a certain brand of credit card would be the deciding factor.
And you know when the banks are trying to cash in that this whole tourist/traveller thing has jumped the shark(开始走下坡路,失去吸引力).
The only difference I can see between tourists and travellers is a fair whack of pretension.
If you take yourself seriously enough to boast of being a "traveller", then there are probably a few other labels for you that are equally appropriate.
"Travellers" are out there though. For those on the lookout, the common, garden-variety traveller has a few dead giveaways.
You won't find a traveller at the Eiffel Tower or the Colosseum. Travellers would avoid the obvious destinations and instead plump for somewhere that's rarely visited, and preferably requires a cool-looking visa. That destination might turn out to be rubbish – not that a traveller would admit it – but that's besides the point.
The fact is they went there, and the tourists didn't.
There's a fair amount of looking down of noses, too, mostly at that perceived bunch of "tourists" – you know, the ones who would happily spend their entire week-long summer break getting their hair braided in Kuta and not give a damn what anyone thought of them.
And in that respect, I'm with the tourists. Who cares how you do your travel? It's your money, your time – spend it how you want.
Some people seem to look at travel as a sort of competition, a global amassing of points to hold over others who haven't had the same experiences. There's real animosity from those who don't think other people are doing their travel "right".
I find the whole thing bizarre. Travel is a purely individual pursuit – there is no right or wrong.
Being a writer, however, I do feel an irresistible urge to group people into neat little categories for the sake of brevity, so I've been having a think about those of us that travel. If you really had to group people by their travel habits, I'd say there are probably two different categories out there: explorers, and relaxers.
One's not better than the other. And the two aren't mutually exclusive. Not even on the same holiday. Some people, granted, will always be explorers. Others are destined to always be relaxers. Some, however, will flick between the two within a week.
So here's how it goes. Relaxers travel to do just that: relax. They don't want the hassle of screaming touts and constant haggling and buses that don't turn up, people who can't understand them, and food they can't eat.
They work hard at home – on holidays, they want to chill. So they go to beach resorts and drink cocktails out of coconuts. They book into the same hotel for a week. They go on organised tours and allow someone else to do all the hard slog. They go somewhere clean and easy where bedbugs don't bite, food doesn't poison, crowds don't push, people don't beg, and everything works the way it's supposed to, when it's supposed to.
They can just relax.
Explorers will sacrifice some of that relaxation for the opportunity to find something they haven't seen before. They'll put up with dirty rooms booked at the last minute, weird food that no one can explain, and all the struggles that come with a language barrier.
In return they'll get a sometimes amazing, sometimes frightening, but always interesting experience that they'll need a few weeks at work just to recover from.
Everyone will have their preference. Me, I'm mostly an explorer kind of guy. I can handle the odd day's relaxation, but I get bored easily – I need entertainment.
I don't consider that that is a fundamentally "better" way to travel than going and lying on a beach, though. It's just different. My personal preference.
Travellers, however, might disagree.
