Companionship of Books 以書為伴(節(jié)選)
Companionship of Books
A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.
A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.
Men often discover their affinity to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb, ‘Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:” Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together, and he in them.
A good book is often the best urn of a life enshrining the best that life could think out; for the world of a man’s life is, for the most part, but the world of his thoughts. Thus the best books are treasuries of good words, the golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our constant companions and comforters.
Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author’s minds, ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time have been to sift out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive e but what is really good.
Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see the as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe.
The great and good do not die, even in this world. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which on still listens.

以書為伴(節(jié)選)
通??匆粋€讀些什么書就可知道他的為人,就像看他同什么人交往就可知道他的為人一樣,因為有人以人為伴,也有人以書為伴。無論是書友還是朋友,我們都應(yīng)該以最好的為伴。
好書就像是你最好的朋友。它始終不渝,過去如此,現(xiàn)在如此,將來也永遠(yuǎn)不變。它是最有耐心,最令人愉悅的伴侶。在我們窮愁潦倒,臨危遭難時,它也不會拋棄我們,對我們總是一如既往地親切。在我們年輕時,好書陶冶我們的性情,增長我們的知識;到我們年老時,它又給我們以慰藉和勉勵。
人們常常因為喜歡同一本書而結(jié)為知已,就像有時兩個人因為敬慕同一個人而成為朋友一樣。有句古諺說道:“愛屋及屋。”其實“愛我及書”這句話蘊(yùn)涵更多的哲理。書是更為真誠而高尚的情誼紐帶。人們可以通過共同喜愛的作家溝通思想,交流感情,彼此息息相通,并與自己喜歡的作家思想相通,情感相融。
好書常如最精美的寶器,珍藏著人生的思想的精華,因為人生的境界主要就在于其思想的境界。因此,最好的書是金玉良言和崇高思想的寶庫,這些良言和思想若銘記于心并多加珍視,就會成為我們忠實的伴侶和永恒的慰藉。
書籍具有不朽的本質(zhì),是為人類努力創(chuàng)造的最為持久的成果。寺廟會倒坍,神像會朽爛,而書卻經(jīng)久長存。對于偉大的思想來說,時間是無關(guān)緊要的。多年前初次閃現(xiàn)于作者腦海的偉大思想今日依然清新如故。時間惟一的作用是淘汰不好的作品,因為只有真正的佳作才能經(jīng)世長存。
書籍介紹我們與最優(yōu)秀的人為伍,使我們置身于歷代偉人巨匠之間,如聞其聲,如觀其行,如見其人,同他們情感交融,悲喜與共,感同身受。我們覺得自己仿佛在作者所描繪的舞臺上和他們一起粉墨登場。
即使在人世間,偉大杰出的人物也永生不來。他們的精神被載入書冊,傳于四海。書是人生至今仍在聆聽的智慧之聲,永遠(yuǎn)充滿著活力。

從不說他做不到
We Never Told Him He Couldn't Do It
My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally - but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in surgery, casts and braces. By the time he was eight, you wouldn't know he had a problem when you saw him walk .
The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn't be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn't know.
In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others - perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn't tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn't know.
He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day - even the day he had a 103-degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. "Okay," he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldn't run four miles with a 103-degree fever. So he didn't know.
Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade - the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he shouldn't expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn't do it. We never told him he couldn't do it...so he didn't know. He just did it.
從不說他做不到
我的兒子瓊尼降生時,他的雙腳向上彎彎著,醫(yī)生向我們保證說經(jīng)過治療,小瓊尼可以像常人一樣走路,但像常人一樣跑步的可能性則微乎其微。瓊尼3歲之前一直在接受治療,和支架、石膏模子打交道。七八歲的時候,他走路的樣子已讓人看不出他的腿有過毛病。
鄰居的小孩子們做游戲的時候總是跑過來跑過去。毫無疑問小瓊尼看到他們玩就會馬上加進(jìn)去跑啊鬧的。我們從不告訴他不能像別的孩子那樣跑,我們從不說他和別的孩子不一樣。因為我們不對他說,所以他不知道。
七年級的時候,瓊尼決定參加跑步橫穿全美的比賽。每天他和大伙一塊訓(xùn)練。也許是意識到自己先天不如別人,他訓(xùn)練得比任何人都刻苦。訓(xùn)練隊的前7名選手可以參加最后比賽,為學(xué)校拿分。我們沒有告訴瓊尼;也許會落空,所以他不知道。
他堅持每天跑4~5英里。我永遠(yuǎn)不會忘記有一次,他發(fā)著高燒,但仍堅持訓(xùn)練。我為他擔(dān)心,于是去學(xué)??此?,發(fā)現(xiàn)他正在一個人沿著長長的林蔭道跑步呢。我問他感覺怎么樣,"很好。"他說。還剩下最后兩英里。他滿臉是汗,眼睛因為發(fā)燒失去了光彩。然而他目不斜視,堅持著跑下來。我們從沒有告訴他不能發(fā)著高燒去跑4英里的路,我們從沒有這樣對他說,所以他不知道。
兩個星期后,在決賽前的3天,長跑隊的名次被確定下來。瓊尼是第六名,他成功了。他才是個七年級生,而其余的人都是八年級生。我們從沒有告訴他不要去期望入選,我們從沒有對他說他不會成功。是的,從沒說起過……所以他不知道,但他卻做到了!

What I have Lived for 我為何而生
What I Have Lived For
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.
I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy---ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours for this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness---that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what---at last---I have found.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.
Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always it brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.
This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.
譯文:
我為何而生
我的一生被三種簡單卻又無比強(qiáng)烈的激情所控制:對愛的渴望,對知識的探索和對人類苦難難以抑制的嶼。這些激情像狂風(fēng),把我恣情吹向四方,掠過苦痛的大海,迫使我瀕臨絕望的邊緣。
我尋求愛,首先因為它使我心為之著迷,這種難以名狀的美妙迷醉使我愿意用所有的余生去換取哪怕幾個小時這樣的幸福。我尋求愛,還因為它能緩解我心理上的孤獨(dú)中,我感覺心靈的戰(zhàn)栗,仿如站在世界的邊緣而面前是冰冷,無底的死亡深淵。我尋求愛,因為在我所目睹的結(jié)合中,我仿佛看到了圣賢與詩人們所向往的天堂之景。這就是我所尋找的,雖然對人的一生而言似乎有些遙不可及,但至少是我用盡一生所領(lǐng)悟到的。
我用同樣的激情去尋求知識。我希望能理解人類的心靈,希望能夠知道群星閃爍的緣由。我試圖領(lǐng)悟畢達(dá)哥拉斯所景仰的“數(shù)即萬物”的思想。我已經(jīng)悟出了其中的一點點道理,盡管并不是很多。
愛和知識,用它們的力量把人引向天堂。但是同情卻總把人又拽回到塵世中來。痛苦的呼喊聲回蕩在我的內(nèi)心。饑餓的孩子,受壓迫的難民,貧窮和痛苦的世界,都是對人類所憧憬的美好生活的無情嘲弄。我渴望能夠減少邪惡,但是我無能為力,我也難逃其折磨。
這就是我的一生。我已經(jīng)找到它的價值。而且如果有機(jī)會,我很愿意能再活它一次。
