雙語閱讀:Courage of Life(含MP3錄音)

聆聽美文

The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment;

人生中的勇氣,通常不像緊要時刻的勇氣那麼富於戲劇性;

but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy.

但是這種勇氣卻不失為是一個關於勝利和悲劇的壯觀混合體。

A man does what he must-in spite of personal consequences,in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures-and that is the basis of all human morality.

一個人去做他必須做的一切事情—不計個人得失,不計種種障礙,危險和壓力—這就是人類一切道德的基石。

To be courageous requires no exceptional qualifications,no magic formula,no special combination of time and place and circumstance.

勇敢不需要特殊的條件,也沒有奇妙的規則,同樣也不需要時間,地點和情況的特意配合,

It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all.

我們每個人遲早都會遇到的這麼一個機會。

Politics merely furnishes one arena which imposes special tests of courage.

政治不過是對勇氣進行特殊考驗的一個場所而已。

In whatever arena of life one may meet the challenge of courage.

在人生的競技場上,勇氣都會前來挑戰,

Whatever may be the sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience-the loss of his friends, his fortune, his contentment,even the esteem of his fellow men-each man must decide for himself the course he will follow.

如果你遵從你的良心,那麼你就會面對一如喪失朋友,財富和滿足感,甚至同伴對你的敬重—走哪條路只能由自己決定。

The stories of past courage can define that ingredient-they can teach, they can offer hope,they can provide inspiration.

前人勇敢的故事可以告訴你什麼叫勇氣—這些故事能夠教導我們,為我們帶來希望和鼓勵,

But they cannot supply courage itself.

但卻不能給我們帶來勇氣。

For this each man must look into his own soul.

因為每個人必須到自己的靈魂深處去尋找勇氣。
