1.


不吻一千隻青蛙 怎知哪隻青蛙是王子



2.

Give a thief rope enough and he will hang himself.



3.William D.Tammeus(記者)

除非你明白一個孩子玩旋轉木馬的時候 You really don’t understand human nature

每轉一圈就給他的父母揮揮手 unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round

父母也會向孩子揮手的意義 will wave at his parents every time around

否則你就不會理解人性的含意 And why his parents will always wave back.



4.Guru Nanak(錫克教首位宗師)

安寧置身家中

死神使者亦無法靠近



5.Cyril Connolly(作家)

為自己寫作無人問津

好過為他人寫作失去自我



6.Haniel Long(詩人)

我們生命中大部分的美好

源自家庭的愛

它維持著家的穩定

因為它測驗了我們的忠誠



7.Tacitus(羅馬元老)

人更善於報仇 多於報恩 Men are more ready to repay an injury than a benefit

因為報恩是種負擔 而報仇是種快感 Because gratitude is a burden and revenge a pleasure



8.Mildred Lsette Norman

那些已經失去物質實用價值的東西 Anything you cannot relinquish

你卻仍然無法 When it has outlived its usefulness

割捨它 Possesses you

在這個唯物主義的年代 And in this materialistic age

我們之中很多人 A great many of us

都被我們佔有的東西侵噬了靈魂 are possessed by our possessions



9.

生活像棋亦勝似棋 In life unlike chess

棋終人散 前路漫漫 The game continues after checkmate



10.William Shakespeare

命運 會把你的靈魂帶到 最適合的地方



11.Rudyard Kipling《The Ballad of East and West》(1889)

Oh,East is East,and West is West,and never the twain shall meet.
