青澀的青春
Man's youth is a wonderful thing： it is so full of anguish and of magic and he never comes to know it as it is， until it has gone from him forever. It is the thing he cannot bear to lose， it is the thing whose passing he watches with infinite sorrow and regret， it is the thing whose loss with a sad and secret joy， the thing he would never willingly relive again， could it be restored to him by any magic.
青春奇妙無窮，充滿魅力，充滿痛楚.青春年少的時(shí)候根本不知青春為何物，直到青春一去不復(fù)返了才對(duì)青春有了真正的認(rèn)識(shí).誰(shuí)都想讓青春永駐，不忍青春離去;眼睜睜地看著青春流逝，心中會(huì)涌起無窮的憂傷和惋惜;青春的失去是人們永遠(yuǎn)感到悲哀的事;青春的失去是人們真正覺得悲喜交集的事;即便奇跡出現(xiàn)青春復(fù)蘇，誰(shuí)都不會(huì)心甘情愿重度青春的歲月。
Why is this? The reason is that the strange and bitter miracle of life is nowhere else so evident as in our youth. And what is the essence of that strange and bitter miracle of life which we feel so poignant， so unutterable， with such a bitter pain and joy， when we are young? It is this： that being rich， we are so poor; that being mighty， we can yet have nothing; that seeing， breathig， smelling， tasting all around us the impossible wealth and glory of this earth， feeling with an intolerable certitude that the whole structure of the enchanted life – the most fortunate， wealthy， good， and happy life that any man has ever known – is ours – is ours at once， immediately and forever， the moment that we choose to take a step， or stretch a hand， or say a word- we yet know that we can really keep， hold， take， and possess forever- nothing. All passes; nothing lasts： the moment that we put our hand upon it ， it melts away like smoke， is gone forever， and the snake is eating at our heart again; we see then what we are and what our lives must come to.
為什么如此?因?yàn)樵谇啻簳r(shí)代，生活充滿了奇特而辛酸的不可思議的事.我們?cè)谇啻耗晟贂r(shí)帶著悲喜交集的心情，十分強(qiáng)烈而不可名狀地感受到人生的奇特辛酸/不可思議的經(jīng)歷.其實(shí)質(zhì)是什么呢?其實(shí)質(zhì)是這樣的：青春年少的時(shí)候，雖然殷實(shí)富足，卻非常貧窮;雖然力氣強(qiáng)大，卻一無所有;世間的富貴榮華觸目皆是，簡(jiǎn)直可以呼吸到，聞到嗅到，還可以品嘗到，心中的自信按捺不住，深切地感受到整個(gè)被陶醉了的生活——人類迄今為止所直到的最幸運(yùn)/最富有的美好幸福的生活，只要我們決定向前邁步，奮發(fā)努力，便立即歸我們所有了，并將永遠(yuǎn)屬于我們.然而，我們知道，我們真的永遠(yuǎn)不能抓到什么，永遠(yuǎn)不能獲得什么，永遠(yuǎn)不能占有什么.一切匆匆過去，蕩然無存.我們一出手它就煙消云散，飄然而去，一去不復(fù)返了.于是，心中泛起陣陣隱痛，看到了自己真實(shí)的面孔，看到了自己未來生活的必然走向。
A young man is so strong， so mad， so certain， and so lost. He has everything and he is able to use nothing. He hurls the great shoulder of his strength forever against phantasmal barriers， he is a wave whose power explodes in lost mid – oceans under timeless skies， here-aches out to grip a fume of painted smoke， he wants all， feels the thirst and power foreverything， and finally gets nothing. In the end， he is destroyed by his own strength， devoured by his own hunger， impoverished by his own wealth. Thoughtless of money or the accumulation of material possessions， he is none the less defeated in the end by his own greed a greed that makes the avarice of King Midas seem paltry by comparison.
青年人非常堅(jiān)強(qiáng)，狂熱自信，但容易迷惘混沌，雖然機(jī)緣無數(shù)，卻把握不住，雖然身強(qiáng)體壯，試圖沖破重重虛幻的屏障，卻如同一個(gè)波浪，最終還是無力地消失在曠遠(yuǎn)浩淼的大海中央，他伸出手想要抓住斑斕的云煙，他想得到世間的萬物，渴望主宰一切，最終卻是一無所獲.最后，他被自己的力量所毀滅，被自己的饑餓所吞食，被自己的財(cái)富弄得貧窮潦倒.他對(duì)金錢或財(cái)富的積累不以為意漫不經(jīng)心，然而最終還是被自己的貪欲所吞噬。
And that is the reason why， when youth is gone， every man will look back upon that period of his life with infinite sorrow and regret. It is the bitter sorrow and regret of a man who knows that once he had a great talent and wasted it ， of a man who knows that once he had a great treasure and got nothing from it ， of a man who knows that he had strength enough for everything and never used it.
青春消逝，驀然回首，無論是誰(shuí)，心中都會(huì)充滿無盡的憂傷，充滿無窮的懊悔.曾經(jīng)才智卓越，卻白白浪費(fèi)了，曾經(jīng)財(cái)富殷實(shí)，卻一無所有，曾經(jīng)本事高強(qiáng)，卻從未利用.一個(gè)認(rèn)識(shí)到自己失落青春的人回憶起來總是充滿悲傷和懊悔。
關(guān)于獲得成功
We cannot travel every path. Success must be won along one line.We must make our business the one life purpose to which every other must be subordinate(服從).
我們不可能把每條路都走一遍。必須執(zhí)著于一條道路才能獲得成功。我們必須有一個(gè)終生追求的目標(biāo)，其他的則從屬于這個(gè)目標(biāo)。
I hate a thing done by halves(不完全的). If it be right, do it boldly.If it be wrong， leave it undone.
我痛恨做事半途而廢。如果這件事是對(duì)的，就大膽勇敢地去做;如果這件事不對(duì)，就不要去做。
The men of history were not perpetually(不斷地) looking into the mirror to make sure of their own size. Absorbed in their work they did it. They did it so well that the wondering world sees them to be great， and labeled them accordingly.
歷史長(zhǎng)河中的偉人并不是靠終日瞻觀鏡中的自己來衡量自身的形象的。他們的形象來自對(duì)事業(yè)全身心的投入與追求。他們是如此的卓越超凡，于是蕓蕓眾生覺得他們很偉大，并因此稱他們?yōu)閭ト恕?/p>
To live with a high ideal is a successful life. It is not what one does， but what one tries to do， that makes a man strong. “Eternal vigilance，” it has been said， “is the price of liberty.” With equal truth it may be said， “Unceasing effort is the price of success.” If we do not work with our might， others will; and they will outstrip(超過) us in the race， and pluck the prize from our grasp.
為崇高的理想而活著是一種成功的生活。使人變強(qiáng)大的，不是這個(gè)人做了什么，而是他努力嘗試去做什么。有人說過，“恒久的警惕是自由的代價(jià)”，那同樣也可以說，“不懈的努力是成功的代價(jià)。”倘若我們不盡全力工作，別人會(huì)盡全力，隨后他們將在競(jìng)爭(zhēng)中超越我們，從我們手中奪取勝利的果實(shí)。
Success grows less and less dependent on luck and chance.Self-distrust is the cause of most of our failures.
成功越來越不依賴于運(yùn)氣和巧合。喪失自信是我們失敗的主要原因。
The great and indispensable help to success is character. Character is a crystallized habit， the result of training and conviction. Every character is influenced by heredity， environment and education. But these apart， if every man were not to be a great extent the architect of his own character， he would be a fatalist， and irresponsible creature of circumstances.
性格是取得成功不可或缺的重要助力。性格是一種固化成形的習(xí)慣，是不斷培養(yǎng)并堅(jiān)信于此的結(jié)果。每個(gè)人的性格都會(huì)受到遺傳因素、環(huán)境和教育的影響。但除此之外，如果人在很大程度上不能成為自己性格的構(gòu)筑者，那么他就會(huì)淪為宿命論者，從而成為環(huán)境的失敗造物。
Instead of saying that man is a creature of circumstance， it would be nearer the mark to say that man is the architect of circumstance. From the same materials one man builds palaces， another hovel. Bricks and mortar are mortar and bricks， until the architect can make them something else.
與其說人是環(huán)境的造物，不如說人是環(huán)境的建筑師更貼切些。同樣的材料，有人能用其建造出宮殿，而有人只能建成簡(jiǎn)陋的小屋。在建筑師將其變成他物之前，磚泥依然是磚泥。
The true way to gain much is never to desire to gain too much.
想得到的多就永遠(yuǎn)不要奢望太多。
Wise men don't care for what they can't have.
智者不會(huì)在意他們得不到的東西。
友情和愛情的區(qū)別
Both are so much related to each other. And both are so dissimilar! What are the differences between friendship and love? Is platonic friendship possible between persons of opposite sex? Let us try and understand.
兩者聯(lián)系是如此密切，兩者卻又那么截然不同。友情和愛情有什么區(qū)別?異性朋友間的理想化的友誼真的存在嗎?我們來試著理解下。
What is friendship? Why do we call a person our friend? When do we call someone a very good friend? If we care for a person， if we are always ready to help that person and if we share most of our thoughts with a person， they are our good friends. We can always count upon our good friends in an emergency. We are always sure that our friend will understand why we acted in a certain way. We need not explain anything to our very good friends. The friendship is so deep and the relationship is so intimate， that most of the things are automatically understood by our friends.
什么是友情?為什么我們管一個(gè)人叫“朋友”?什么時(shí)候我們管一個(gè)人叫作“好朋友”?如果我們關(guān)心一個(gè)人，我們總是準(zhǔn)備幫助那個(gè)人;如果我們和某個(gè)人分享大部分的想法，那個(gè)人一定是我們的好朋友。在緊急情況下我們總是依靠好朋友。我們總是確定好友會(huì)理解我們行事的方式。我們不需要向親密的朋友解釋什么。友情如此深，關(guān)系如此牢，以致于朋友間的事雙方都會(huì)很自然地理解。
What about love? In a relationship of deep love， all the sharing that we discussed above are taken for granted. But love transcends all this. During love， we are attached with a particular person， while in friendship， one may have many friends. A loving relationship makes one so much attached to the other， that one gets pained if his/her beloved is hurt! Love also involves a physical element. Friendship does not have that. This is a vital difference. Nature gives us love so that the specie can go forward. Nature does not give us friendship.
什么是愛情?在深愛中，上面我們討論的事情都是理所當(dāng)然的。但是愛情遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過這些。戀愛中，我們總是和某個(gè)人關(guān)系密切。但是在友情中，一個(gè)人可能有很多朋友。戀愛的兩個(gè)人聯(lián)系得如此緊密，如果他/她受到了傷害，另一個(gè)人也會(huì)心痛。愛情總會(huì)有身體上的接觸。友情卻沒有。這是至關(guān)重要的區(qū)別。上蒼給予了我們愛情，以使種族延續(xù)。但是上蒼卻沒有給我們友情。
Your heart beats will never increase in anticipation of meeting your friend. You will not lie awake at night thinking about your friend. You will not feel totally lost， if you don't meet your friend for a few days. You will not have dreams in your eyes thinking about your friend. But in love， you will do all this and much more. Indeed， there is no comparison between love and friendship.
在盼朋友出現(xiàn)時(shí)，你的心跳不會(huì)增加;你不會(huì)夜不能寐地想著你的朋友;如果幾天沒見到朋友，你也不會(huì)完全迷失;想到朋友時(shí)，你的眼中不會(huì)有夢(mèng)想。但是在戀愛中，這一切你都會(huì)做而且程度會(huì)更深。確實(shí)，愛情和友情沒有可比性。
