1.The more difficult something is, the more rewarding it is in the end. 事情愈艰难,最后愈能得到丰厚的果实。 编者话:这或许就是我们常说的“多劳多得,无劳无获”吧! 2.Here comes a point when a reasonable man will swallow his pride and admit that he's made a terrible mistake. 懂道理的人,终会按下自尊,坦诚他犯下严重错误的时刻。 编者话:也许大多数人们无法做到如此理想,但无论曾经犯过多严重的错误,一定要相信自己! 3.There is nothing that we can do for someone who doesn't appreciate what's in front of them. 对于一个不懂得珍惜良机的人来说,无论我们如何努力都是徒劳。 编者话:就像有些故事,没有必要讲给所有人听,因为不懂珍惜的人是不会感同身受的。 4.If you wish to succeed, you should use persistence as your good friend, experience as your reference, prudence as your brother and hope as your sentry. 如果你希望成功,当以恒心为良友,以经验为参谋,以谨慎为兄弟,以希望为哨兵。 编者话:爱迪生将成功归功于恒心、经验、谨慎、希望四个要素。恒心意味着坚持不放弃,经验需要不断积累,谨慎是小心从事,希望是对未来抱有期待。 5.The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for circumstances they want, and if they cannot find them, make them. 在这个世界上取得成就的人,都努力去寻找他们想要的机会,如果找不到机会,他们便自己创造机会。 编者话:机会或许会在意想不到的时候到来,对于我们来说,不仅要有创造机会的能力,还要有等待机会的勇气,就像在漫漫长夜等待黎明,太阳总是会在最黑暗的时刻之后升起。 6.Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity. So let us seize it, not in fear, but in gladness. 命运给予我们的不是失望之酒,而是机会之杯。因此,让我们毫无畏惧,满心愉悦地把握命运。 编者话:世界上任何东西都具有两面性,千万不要忘记即使是逆境也能推动你事业的成功。 7.Few things are impossible in themselves; and it is often for want of will, rather than of means, that man fails to succeed. 事情很少有根本做不成的;其所以做不成,与其说是条件不够,不如说是由于决心不够。 编者话:当你内心坚定去做一件事时,无论过程有多坎坷,你都不会更改,更不会动摇初心。一旦你动摇了,放弃了,说明你对这件事的决心根本不够,你做的一切也只是在自我感动而已。 8.I love and am used to keeping a distance with those changed things. Only in this way can I know what will not be abandoned by time. 我喜欢并习惯了对变化的东西保持着距离,这样才会知道什么是最不会被时间抛弃的准则。 编者话:比如爱一个人,可能会充满变数,所以有时候我会后退一步,静静地看着,直到看见真诚的感情。 9.An unacceptable love needs no sorrow but time- some time for forgetting. A badly-hurt heart needs no sympathy but understanding. 一段不被接受的爱情,需要的不是伤心,而是时间,一段可以用来遗忘的时间。一颗被伤了的心,需要的不是同情,而是明白。 编者话:因为爱过,所以慈悲;因为懂得,所以宽容。 10.When you finally get your own happiness, you will understand the previous sadness is a kind of treasure, which makes you better to hold and cherish the people you love. 等你获得真正属于你的幸福之后,你就会明白一起的伤痛其实是一种财富,它让你学会更好地去把握和珍惜你爱的人。 编者话:希望你们在爱情里受伤少一点,痊愈的快一点;在接下来的生活中,努力一点,大胆一点,顾虑少一点。 |
