NIGHT

夜晚

My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can.

Cary Grant

我的生活公式很簡單。早上起來、晚上睡覺。在中間盡力而為。

We should every night call ourselves to an account; What infirmity have I mastered today? What passions opposed? What temptation resisted? What virtue acquired? Our vices will abort of themselves if they be brought every day to the shrift.

Seneca (3 BC - 65 AD)

我們應該每晚對自己進行反省:今天我克服了哪些弱點?抵抗了哪些情緒?抗拒了哪些誘惑?培養了哪些美德?如果我們每天都進行這樣的懺悔,我們的惡習自然會逐漸消失。

Some families can trace their ancestors back three hundred years, but can't tell you where their children were last night.

Jean Kerr

有些家庭可以追溯他們祖宗遠及三百年前,可是卻無法告訴你他們的孩子昨天晚上在哪裡。

All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.

T. E. Lawrence

所有人都做夢,但夢的方式並不相同。那些在夜晚於心靈塵封角落中做夢的人,醒來後發現那不過是虛幻;然而,白日的夢想家則是危險的人,因為他們可能會睜著眼睛去實現他們的夢,使之成真。

A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between he does what he wants to do.

Bob Dylan

如果一個人早上起來、晚上睡覺,中間作自己想作的事情,這個人就成功了。

Fear can keep us up all night long, but faith makes one fine pillow.

Philip Gulley

恐懼會讓我們整夜無法入眠,但信心可以給我們無憂的好枕頭。

The dark night was the first book of poetry, and the constellations were the poems.

Chet Raymo

黑夜其實是第一卷詩集,星宿則是其中的詩篇。

God made night, but man made darkness.

Spike Milligan

上帝創造黑夜,人製造黑暗。
