Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.
無(wú)論是60歲還是16歲，你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄滅的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事業(yè)成功的歡樂(lè)與熱情。在你我的心底，有一座無(wú)線電臺(tái)，它能在多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間里接收到人間萬(wàn)物傳遞來(lái)的美好、希望、歡樂(lè)、鼓舞和力量的信息，你就會(huì)年輕多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。
An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.
人的生命應(yīng)當(dāng)像河流，開(kāi)始是涓涓細(xì)流，受兩岸的限制而十分狹窄，爾后奔騰咆哮，翻過(guò)危巖，飛越瀑布，河面漸漸開(kāi)闊，河岸也隨之向兩邊隱去，最后水流平緩，森森無(wú)際，匯入大海之中，個(gè)人就這樣毫無(wú)痛苦地消失了。
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春意味著戰(zhàn)勝懦弱的那股大丈夫氣概和擯棄安逸的那種冒險(xiǎn)精神。往往一個(gè)60歲的老者比一個(gè)20歲的青年更多一點(diǎn)這種勁頭。人老不僅僅是歲月流逝所致，更主要的是不思進(jìn)取的結(jié)果。
Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
光陰可以在顏面上留下印記，而熱情之火的熄滅則在心靈上刻下皺紋。煩惱、恐懼、缺乏自信會(huì)扭曲人的靈魂，并將青春化為灰燼。
