《傲慢与偏见》
How quick come the reasons for approving what we like!
想给我们的喜好找个理由时，脑袋转的是最快的。
Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings.
生活就是一连串的无事忙。
What is right to be done cannot be done too soon.
越该做的事，就越急不得。
I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle.
在实际生活中我是个自私的人，但在原则上不是。
There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart.
心灵的柔软是最大的魅力。
《简爱》
Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automation? A machine without feelings? And can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup?
Do you think because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am souless and heartless? You think wrong! I have as much soul as you--and full as much heart! And if god had gifted me with some beauty and wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to live me, as it is now for me to live you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh--it is my spirit that address your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave and we stood at God's feet--equal--as we are!
你以为我会无足轻重的留在这里吗？你以为我是一架没有感情的机器人吗？你以为我贫穷、低微、不美、缈小，我就没有灵魂，没有心吗？你想错了，我和你有一样多的灵魂，一样充实的心。如果上帝赐予我一点美，许多钱，我就要你难以离开我，就象我现在难以离开你一样。我现在不是以社会生活和习俗的准则和你说话，而是我的心灵同你的心灵讲话。仿佛我们已经穿越了坟墓穿越了生死来到上帝的脚下——平等——我们生来如此！
The ideals which have lighted my way , and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully 19 have been kindness , beauty and truth .(Albert Einstein , American scientist)
有些理想曾为我们引过道路，并不断给我新的勇气以欣然面对人生，那些理想就是——真、善、美。 --美国科学家 爱因斯坦
I have nothing to offer but blood , toil tears and sweat . (Winston Churchill, British Politician)
我所能奉献的没有其它，只有热血、辛劳、眼泪与汗水。--英国政治家 丘吉尔
