(以上两个例句摘录于 Francis Bacon 的 << Of Studies>>一文,王佐良 译)
An individual man existence should be like a river-- small at first,narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately pastboulders and over waterfalls.Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the watersflow more quietly, and in theend, without any visible break, they become merged in thesea, and can painlessly lose theirindividual being.
人生好比一条河,开头河身狭窄,夹在两暗之间,接着河水奔腾咆哮,流过巨石,飞下悬崖。后来河面涿渐展宽,两岸离的越来越远,河水也变得较为平缓,最后流进大海,与海水浑然一体,看不出任何界线,从而结素其单独存在的那一段历程,但毫无痛苦之感。
(该例句摘录于 Bertrand Russell 的 << How to Grow Old>> 一文,庄绎传 译)
One of thegreatest joys known to man is take such a flight into ignorancein search of knowledge.
为求知识而陷入无知,这是人类所欣赏的最大乐事之一。
(该例句摘录于Robert Lynd 的 << The Pleasures of Ignorance>> 一文,刘炳善译)
