你就是个奇迹 A Marvel
Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again … And what do we teach our children? We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France.
我们活着的每一秒都是独一无二的
When will we also teach them what they are?
我们活着的每一秒都是世界上独一无二、不可重现的。我们应该教给我们的孩子些什么呢?2+2=4,法国的首都是巴黎?
We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move.
我们活着的每一秒都是世界上独一无二、不可重现的。我们应该教给我们的孩子些什么呢?2+2=4,法国的首都是巴黎?
You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel?
你可以成为莎士比亚,米开朗琪罗,或者是贝多芬。你有成就一切的能力。是的,你是一个奇迹。而当你长大之后,你会忍心去伤害另一个如你一般的奇迹么?
You must work — we must all work — to make the world worth of its children.
我们必须同心协力,让这个世界成为值得孩子们生活的乐土。
---Pablo Casals
富兰克林给年轻朋友的一封信
Letter to a Young Friend by Benjamin Franklin
给年轻朋友的一封信 本杰明·富兰克林
My dear friend
我亲爱的朋友
I know of no medicine fit to diminish the violent natural inclination you mention; and if I did, I think I should not communicate it to you. Marriage is the proper remedy. It is the most natural State of man, and therefore the state in which you will find solid Happiness.Your reason against entering into it at present appears to be not well founded. The circumstantial advantages you have in view by postponing it, are not only uncertain, but they are small in comparison with the thing itself, the being married and settled. It is the man and woman united that makes the complete human Being, Separate she wants his force of body and strength of reason; he her softness, sensibility and acute discernment. Together they are most likely to succeed in the world. A single man has not nearly the value he would have in that state of union. He is an incomplete animal.He resembles the odd half of a pair of scissors.
我知道没有药物能够消除你们所提到的那种疯狂的自然倾向;即使我知道,我想我也不该告诉你.婚姻是适当的药物。它是人类最本能的状态,因此是一种最幸福的生活状态。你拒绝现在进入婚姻殿堂的理由显的不够充分.你认为推迟婚姻可能存在好处,不仅不一定实现,而且,那些利益跟婚姻本身以及婚后的安定相比起来就微不足道了。男人和女人只有联合起来才能组成完整的人.女人缺乏男人的力量和周密的推理,而男人缺乏女人的温柔、感性和敏锐的洞察力。因此当男人和女人联合起来。就能够无往不胜。单身和离婚生活的男男女女不可能具有婚姻生活中的价值,是一种不完善的动物。他简直好比半把剪刀--孤掌难鸣。
If you get a prudent, health wife, your industry in your profession, with her good economy, will be a fortune sufficient.
如果你拥有一位健康而谨慎的妻子,你的辛勤工作,加上她的勤俭节约,必定会创造充足的财富。
Your affectionate Friend
您真挚的朋友
爱情与时间
Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.
在从前,有个小岛上住着各种各样的情感:有幸福,悲伤,聪慧,还有其他各种情感,还有爱情。有一天,他们被告知小岛即将沉没,大家伙都纷纷建造小船纷纷离去。只有爱情对此不是很“感冒”。
Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.
众人纷纷离去,只有爱情独自留了下来。他打算自己撑到最后可能的那一刻。
When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
当小岛真的快沉没的时候,爱情才开始准备求救逃离。
Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,
当财富驾着华丽的大船路过爱情的身旁,他准备向财富乞求帮忙。
"Richness, can you take me with you?"
“财富,能载我离开这里么?”
Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
财富回道:“不可以,我的船里面载满了金银,这里可没空地容你。”
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"
爱情打算向驾着漂亮的船儿同时也路过这里的虚荣求救。“虚荣,请你帮帮我吧。”
"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.
虚荣回道:“我可帮不到你的忙,”“可你浑身湿碌碌的,说不定会弄坏我的船呢。”
Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."
悲伤路过爱情的身边,于是爱情乞求道:“悲伤,带我一起离开这里吧。”
"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"
“哦...,爱情,我太伤感了,我只想自己一个人呆着。”
Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.
快乐也路过爱情这里,但是她太兴奋了以至于她根本没有注意听到爱情的哀求声。爱情与时间
Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder, Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?"
就在这个时候,突然耳边响起了声音,“过来吧,爱情,我带你来离开这里。”这声音是为长者的。由于爱情终于能离开这里而太愉快而且太欣喜过望,以至于他连问长者他们一快将驶向哪里都没有提及。当他们一行到了干涸的土地上后,长者径直离开了。爱情意识到自己亏欠了这位长者太多后,他开口向另一位被称为智慧的长者问道:“那为帮我的人是谁呢?”
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
智慧回道:“是时间本人。”
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
爱情迷惑的问到“是时间?它为什么要帮助我离开那里呢?”
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."
智慧微哂,禅定道来:“因为只有时间才能够真正懂得爱情本身有多重要。”
