作者简介:


精彩片段:
I learned this, at least, by my experiment:
通过实验,我起码明白了这一点:
that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined,
一个人如果能坚定自信地朝着他梦想的方向前进,努力追求他所向往的生活,
he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
最终他是可以获得意想不到的成功的。
He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him;
他会把一些东西抛在身后,会越过一条看不见的界限;新的、更广大的、更自由的法则将要开始围绕着他,并在他的内心里建立起来;
or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.
或者旧有的法则将要升级,在更自由的意义上得到新的解释,他终将拿到生活在事物的更高级的秩序中的许可证。
他把自己的生活越是简单化,宇宙的法则越会删繁就简,
寂寞将不成其为寂寞,贫穷将不成其为贫穷,软弱也将不成其为软弱。
If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be.
如果你建起了空中楼阁,你的付出不会白费,楼阁就应该造在空中,
Now put the foundations under them.
关键是你要在它们的下面打好基础。
