Life 生命

生命要么是一场勇敢的冒险,要么什么都不是。

Have fun. Life is really, really, really short. So have a lot of fun. Work hard. Play hard. Buy low. Sell high. The way you do anything is the way you do everything. The love you take is equal to the love you make. Don’t die with regrets. You’ll regret it.

——Alexander Payne

享受吧,生命太太太短了。所以尽情享受吧。努力工作,尽情玩乐。买低,售高。始终如一。你得到的爱等量于你付出的爱。不要带着遗憾死去,不然你会后悔的。

——亚历山大·佩恩

Let me tell you the most important thing in life is to have vision, to know exactly where you’re going.

——Arnold Schwarzenegger

告诉你们,人生最重要的就是要有方向,清楚知道你要去往何方。

——阿诺德·施瓦辛格

Generally speaking, envy, resentment, revenge and self-pity are disastrous modes of thought. Self-pity gets pretty close to paranoia, and paranoia is one of the very hardest things to reverse. You do not want to drift into self-pity.

——Charlie Munger

通常来讲,嫉妒、怨恨、报复和自怨自艾,这些思想状态都是极具灾难性的。自怨自艾让人近乎偏执,而偏执又是最难纠正过来的一种心理状态。你可不要陷入自怨自艾中。

——查理·芒格

You should enjoy the process of every day. It is the journey of all these every days which will constitute your career, not a precise target. An achievement is not one day in the future. It is the sum of all these moments where you have learned, and loved, and nourished your passion.

——Christian Louboutin

你应该享受每一天的过程。构建你职业生涯的是你活过的每一天,而不是某一个特定的目标。成就并非未来某一天的功成名就,而是所有你在其中学习过、爱过、滋养过激情的时间总和。

——克里斯提·鲁布托

Our friend Nietzsche said that he who has a why to live for can endure any how. But if you don’t know what your purpose is then the first failure or setback can totally throw you into a crisis and total collapse.

——David Brooks

我们的朋友尼采说,一个人知道自己为什么而活,就可以忍受任何一种生活。但若不清楚自己为何而活,那么你所遭遇的第一次失败或挫折便足以让你身处危机、全线崩溃。

——大卫·布鲁克斯

The chances you take, the people you meet, the people you love, the faith that you have—that’s what’s going to define you.

——Denzel Washington

你冒的险,你遇到的人,你爱的人,你拥有的信念——这些将定义你是什么样的人。

——丹泽尔·华盛顿

Don’t always worry about what your next line is supposed to be, what you’re supposed to do next. There’s no script. Live your life. Be in this moment, be in this moment. Now be in this moment.

——Dick Costolo

不要总是担心你的下一句台词应该是什么,你接下来该做什么,没有剧本。过好生活,活在当下,活在当下。此时,就活在当下。

——迪克·科斯托洛

I would encourage you, with all my heart, to just be present. Be present and open to the moment that is unfolding before you, because, ultimately, your life is made up of moments. So don’t miss them by being lost in the past or anticipating the future. Don’t be absent from your own life.

——Jessica Lange

我衷心地建议你们,活在当下。活在当下,珍惜眼前展现的瞬间。因为,从根本上说,人生就是由这些瞬间组成。不要因怀念过去或展望未来而忽视当下的日子。不要缺席你自己的生活。

——杰西卡·兰格

Be curious, not cool. Feed your soul, too. Every day.

——Ken Burns

要怀有好奇心,不要麻木不仁。滋养你的灵魂。每天如此。

——肯·伯恩斯

It is not the things we do in life that we regret on our deathbed. It is the things we do not.

——Randy Pausch

临终时,让我们感到后悔的不是人生中那些做过的事,而是那些未做过的事。

——兰迪·波许

The sooner that we become less impressed with our life, with our accomplishiments, with our career, with whatever that prospect is in front of us, the sooner we become less impressed and more involved with that and these things, the sooner we get a whole lot better at doing them.

——Matthew McConaughey

对于我们的生活,我们的成就,我们的职业,我们的前程——无论什么样的前程,我们越快速地以平常心待之,越多地投入其中,就能越早做得更好。

——马修·麦康纳
