好友、好書，再加上一顆平靜的心，這是理想的生活。
富人相信窮人較快樂，就跟窮人相信富人較快樂，同樣愚蠢。
---美國小說家 馬克吐溫(Mark Twain, 1835-1910)

Good friends,good books and a sleepy conscience:
this is the ideal life. The conviction of the rich that the poor are happier is no
morefoolish than the conviction of the poor that the rich are.



讓我們擁抱 Let s Hug----佚名

世間有表示我愛你的擁抱 There s a hug to say I love you
世間有表示告別的擁抱 And a hug to say goodble
世間有表示問候的擁抱 There s hug to say how are you
世間有表示已盡力的擁抱 And a hug to say we tried
還有那一日將盡的擁抱 There s a hug to bond a friendship
但全世界最得我心的 And a hug when the day is through
仍是來自於你的擁抱 But the hug I love in all the world
Is the hug I get from you

it is only in the conclusions;their reasons are always different.

---英國作家、導演 華爾頓(Izaak walton, 1921-2004)


想要孤單生活的人，很難活得有聲有色。他的心將枯萎，若無法回應另一顆心。
他的思維將退縮，若只聽見自己思想的回聲，而且別無其他啟發。
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being.
His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if
he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
---美國作家 賽珍珠(Pearl S. Buck, 1892-1973)

In marriage do thou be wise:prefer the person before money, virtue before beauty,
the mind before the body;then thou hast a wife, a friend, a companion, a second half.
---英國政治家 潘恩(William Penn, 1644-1718)


不要走在我前面，我不一定追隨;

Don t walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don t walk behind me, I may not lead.
Walk beside me and be my friend.
---法國文學家 卡繆
