晨讀英文美文欣賞：真正的高貴
In a calm sea every man is a pilot.
But all sunshine without shade,
all pleasure without pain, is not life at all.
Take the lot of the happiest — it is a tangled yarn.
Bereavements and blessings, one following another,
make us sad and blessed by turns. Even death itself
makes life more loving. Men come closest to
their true selves in the sober moments of life,
under the shadows of sorry and loss.
In the affairs of life or of business,
it is not intellect that tells so much as character,
not brains so much as heart, not genius so much
as self-control, patience, and discipline,
regulated by judgment.I have always believed that
the man who has begun to live more seriously
within begins to live more simply without.
In an age of extravagance and waste, I wish
I could show to the world how few
the real wants of humanity are.To regret
one’s errors to the point of not repeating them
is true repentance. There is nothing noble in being
superior to some other man. The true nobility is
in being superior to your previous self.
晨讀英文美文欣賞：人在旅途
Wherever you are, and whoever you may be,
there is one thing in which you and I are
just alike,at this moment, and in all the moments
of our existence.We are not at rest;
we are on a journey. Our life is not a mere fact;
it is a movement, a tendency, a steady,
ceaseless progress towards an unseen goal.
We are gaining something, or losing something, every day.
Even when our position and our character seem to
remain precisely the same, they are changing.
For the mere advance of time is a change.
It is not the same thing to have a bare field
in January and in July. The season makes the difference.
The limitations that are childlike in the child are childish
in the man.Everything that we do is a step
in one direction or another. Even the failure to do something
is in itself a deed. It sets us forward or backward.
The action of the negative pole of a magnetic needle is
just as real as the action of the positive pole.
To decline is to accept — the other alternative.
Are you nearer to your port today than you were yesterday?
Yes, — you must be a little nearer to some port or other;
for since your ship was first launched upon
the sea of life you have never been still
for a single moment; the sea is too deep,
you could not find an anchorage if you would;
there can be no pause until you come into port.
