1.你的问题在于读的太少而想的太多。 ——杨绛经典语录
1. Your problem is that you read too little and think too much. ——Yang Jiang’s classic quote

2.惭愧常使人健忘，亏心和丢脸的事总是不愿记起，因此也很容易在记忆的筛眼里走漏的一干二净。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》

3.希望的事，迟早会实现，但实现的希望，总是变了味的。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》

4. People inside the city walls want to escape, while those outside want to rush in; whether it’s marriage or career, most human desires are like this. ——Yang Jiang’s classic quote

5.我常奇怪，为什么有人得了我父亲的帮助，感激得向我母亲叩头，终身不忘。为什么有人由我父亲的帮助得了一千多亩好田，二十年后居然没忘记她所得的便宜；不顾我父亲老病穷困，还来剥削他的脑力，然后用两个汤团来表达她的谢意。为什么人与人之间的差异竟这么大？ ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
5. I often wonder why some people, after receiving help from my father, are so grateful that they kowtow to my mother and never forget it. Why do some people, after getting over a thousand acres of good land with my father’s help, still remember the advantage they gained twenty years later, disregarding my father’s old age, illness, and poverty, and still exploit his intelligence, only to express their gratitude with two soup dumplings. Why is the difference between people so great? ——Yang Jiang, “About to Drink Tea”

6.创作的一个重要成分是想象，经验好比黑暗里点上的火，想象是这个火所发的光；没有火就没有光，但光照所及，远远超过火光点儿的大小。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
6. An important component of creation is imagination; experience is like a fire lit in the dark, and imagination is the light emitted by this fire; without fire, there is no light, but the area illuminated by the light far exceeds the size of the fire itself. ——Yang Jiang, “About to Drink Tea”

7.我国有句老话：”写字是出面宝”。凭你的字写得怎样，人家就断定你是何等人。在新中国，”发言”是”出面宝”。人家听了你的发言，就断定你是何等人。 ——杨绛 《洗澡》
7. There is an old saying in our country: “Writing is a treasure that reveals one’s true self.” People judge what kind of person you are based on your handwriting. In New China, “speaking” is the treasure that reveals one’s true self. People judge what kind of person you are based on your speech. ——Yang Jiang, “Taking a Bath”

8.“假如说，人事有灵性、有良知的动物，那么，人生一世，无非是认识自己，洗练自己，自觉自愿地改造自己，除非甘心于禽兽无异。但是这又谈何容易呢。” ——杨绛 《洗澡》
8. “If we say that humans are spiritual and conscientious animals, then life is nothing more than understanding oneself, refining oneself, and consciously and willingly transforming oneself, unless one is content to be no different from beasts. But how easy is that to achieve?” ——Yang Jiang, “Taking a Bath”

9.上苍不会让所有幸福集中到某个人身上，得到爱情未必得到金钱，拥有金钱未必拥有快乐，得到快乐未必拥有健康，拥有健康未必一切都如愿以偿 ——杨绛 《百岁感言》
9. God will not let all happiness concentrate on one person; obtaining love does not necessarily mean obtaining wealth, possessing wealth does not necessarily mean having happiness, having happiness does not necessarily mean having health, and having health does not necessarily mean that everything will go as one wishes. ——Yang Jiang, “Centenarian’s Reflections”

10.成天坐着学习，连“再教育”我们的“工人师父”们也腻味了。有一位二十二三岁的小“师父”嘀咕说：“我天天在炉前炼钢，并不觉得劳累，现在成天坐着，屁股 也痛，脑袋也痛，浑身不得劲儿。”显然炼人比炼钢费事；“坐冷板凳”也是一项苦功夫。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
10. Sitting and studying all day long, even the “workers and masters” who “re-educate” us get bored. A young “master” in his twenties or thirties muttered, “I work in front of the furnace, smelting steel every day and don’t feel tired, but now I sit all day, my butt hurts, my head hurts, and I feel uncomfortable all over.” Obviously, refining people is more difficult than refining steel; “sitting on a cold bench” is also a tough skill. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of a Floating Life”

11.人能够凝炼成一颗石子，潜伏见底，让时光像 水一般在身上湍急而过，自己只知身在水中，不觉水流。 ——杨绛
11. One can condense oneself into a pebble, hiding at the bottom, letting time flow over oneself like water, only knowing that one is in the water, without realizing the flow of the water. ——Yang Jiang

12.所谓穷，无非是指不置办家产，自食其力，自食其力是没有保障的，不仅病不得，老不得，也没有自由支配自己的时间，干自己喜欢或专长的事。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
12. Being poor, in a way, means not owning any property and relying on one’s own labor, which is insecure; not only can one not afford to be sick or old, but one also lacks the freedom to allocate their own time to do what they like or are good at. ——Yang Jiang, “About to Drink Tea”

13.父亲说，没什么该不该，最喜欢什么，就学什么。我却不放心。只问自己的喜爱，对吗？我喜欢文学，就学文学？爱读小说，就学小说？父亲说，喜欢的就是性之所近，就是自己最相宜的。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
13. My father said, there’s no right or wrong, just study what you like the most. But I’m not reassured. Is it right to only ask about my preferences? If I like literature, should I study literature? If I love reading novels, should I study novels? My father said, what you like is what is closest to your nature, and that is what suits you best. ——Yang Jiang, “About to Drink Tea”

14.可惜能用粗绳子缠捆保护的，只不过是木箱铁箱等粗重行 李；这些木箱、铁箱，确也不如血肉之躯经得起折磨。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
14. Unfortunately, only coarse luggage like wooden and iron boxes can be protected by thick ropes; these wooden and iron boxes, indeed, are not as resistant to wear and tear as the human body. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of a Floating Life”

15.一个人经过不同程度的锻炼，就获得不同程度的修养、不同程度的效益。 ——杨绛
15. A person who has undergone different degrees of training will gain different levels of cultivation and benefits. ——Yang Jiang

16.几年过去了，我渐渐明白：那是一个幸运的人对一个不幸者的愧怍。 ——杨绛 《老王》
16. Years have passed, and I gradually realized: it was the guilt of a fortunate person towards an unfortunate one. ——Yang Jiang, “Old Wang”

17.我是一个老人，尽说些老话，对于时代，我 是一个落队者，我没什么良言贡献给现代婚姻，只是 在物质至上的时代潮流下，想提醒现在的年轻人，男女结合的最最重要的是感情，是双方互相理解的程 度，理解深才能互相欣赏和吸引，才能互相支持，互 相鼓励，才能两情相悦，门当户对以及其它，并不重要。 ——杨绛
17. I am an old man, always talking about old sayings. As for the times, I am a laggard. I have no good advice to offer modern marriage, but in the materialistic era, I want to remind young people that the most important thing in the union of men and women is the emotional connection, the degree of mutual understanding. Only with deep understanding can we appreciate and attract each other, support and encourage each other, and be happy together. Other factors like being well-matched and so on are not important. ——Yang Jiang

18.“我只怕人不如书好对付。他们会看不起你，欺负你，或者就嫉妒你，或者又欺负又嫉妒。…” ——杨绛 《洗澡》
18. “I’m just afraid that people are not as easy to deal with as books. They may look down on you, bully you, or be jealous of you, or both bully and be jealous of you.” ——Yang Jiang, “Bathing”

19.彦成摇摇头说：“我只是觉得这种“洗澡”没用——百糟蹋了水。”“认识到自己的不好是个很痛苦的过程。一个人可以修身求好，才会看到自己不好。然后，出于羞愧，才会悔改。悔了未必就会改过来。要努力不懈，才会改得好一点点。现在咱们是在运动的压力下，群众帮助咱们认识自己这样不好，那样不好，没法抵赖了， 只好承认。 所谓自觉自愿是逼出来的。逼出来的是自觉自愿吗？” ——杨绛 《洗澡》
19. Yan Cheng shook his head and said, “I just think this kind of ‘bathing’ is useless—it’s a waste of water.” “Recognizing one’s own shortcomings is a painful process. Only when a person strives for self-improvement can they see their own flaws. Then, out of shame, they will repent. Repenting doesn’t necessarily mean they will change. Only through relentless efforts can they improve a little. Now we are under the pressure of the movement, and the masses help us recognize our shortcomings, leaving us no choice but to admit them. Is this kind of self-awareness and voluntariness really forced out?” ——Yang Jiang, “Bathing”

20.世间好物不坚牢，彩云易散琉璃脆 。 ——杨绛 《我们仨》
20. The best things in the world are not durable; colorful clouds disperse easily, and glass is fragile. ——Yang Jiang, “We Three”

21.人生最曼妙的风景，竟是内心的淡定与从容……我们曾如此期盼外界的认可，到最后才知道：世界是自己的，与他人毫无关系。 ——杨绛

22.你的问题主要在于读书不多而想得太多 ——杨绛
22. Your main problem lies in reading too little and thinking too much. ——Yang Jiang

23. “I don’t want a son; I want a daughter—one, just like yours. Before meeting her, I never thought about getting married; after marrying her, I never regretted it.” ——Yang Jiang, “Before Meeting Her, I Never Thought About Getting Married; After Marrying Her, I Never Regretted It”

25.少年贪玩，青年迷恋爱情，壮年汲汲于成名成家，暮年自安于自欺欺人。人寿几何，顽铁能炼成的精金，能有多少？我们曾如此渴望命运的波澜，到最后才发现，人生最曼妙的风景，竟是内心的淡定与从容。 ——杨绛 《一百岁感言》
25. Youth is playful, young adulthood is infatuated with love, middle age is eager for fame and family, and old age is content with self-deception. How long is one’s life? How much refined gold can be made from crude iron? We once longed so much for the vicissitudes of fate, only to find out in the end that the most wonderful scenery in life is the calmness and composure within our hearts. ——Yang Jiang, “A Hundred-Year Reflections”

26.假如“心如明镜台”的比喻可以借用，她就要勤加拂拭，抹去一切尘埃。 ——杨绛 《洗澡》

27. Yao Su’s eyes brightened, as if on a stormy night, the lightning illuminated the dark clouds before the thunder roared. ——Yang Jiang, “Bathing”

28.人间不会有单纯的快乐，快乐总夹杂着烦恼和忧虑，人间也没有永远。 ——杨绛 《我们仨》
28. There is no pure happiness in the world; happiness is always mixed with worries and concerns, and there is no eternal happiness. ——Yang Jiang, “We Three”

29.惟有身处卑微的人，最有机缘看到世态人情的真相。一个人不想攀高就不怕下跌，也不用倾轧排挤，可以保其天真，成其自然，潜心一志完成自己能做的事。 ——杨绛
29. Only those in humble positions have the best opportunity to see the truth of human nature and the world. If a person doesn’t seek to climb high, they don’t fear falling, nor do they need to compete and exclude others. They can maintain their innocence, be natural, and devote themselves to accomplishing what they can do. ——Yang Jiang

30.我只是一滴清水，不是肥皂水，不能吹泡泡。 ——杨绛
30. I am just a drop of clear water, not soapy water, and cannot blow bubbles. ——Yang Jiang

31.消失于众人之中，如水珠包孕于海水之内，如细小的野花隐藏在草丛里，不求“勿忘我”，不求“赛牡丹”，安闲舒适，得其所哉。一个人不想攀高就不怕下跌，也不用倾轧排挤，可以保其天真，成其自然，潜心一志完成自己能做的事。 ——杨绛 《隐身衣》
31. To disappear among the crowd, like a water droplet embraced by the sea, like a tiny wildflower hidden in the grass, not seeking “forget-me-not” or “compete with peonies,” but finding peace and contentment, being at ease and comfortable, finding one’s place. If one does not strive for heights, there is no fear of falling, nor the need to compete and squeeze others out. This allows one to preserve innocence, become natural, and focus on accomplishing what one is capable of doing. ——Yang Jiang, “Invisible Coat”

32.我们这个家，很朴素；我们三个人，很单纯。我们于是无求，与人无争，只求相聚在一起，相守在一起，各自做力所能及的事。碰到困难，我们一同承担，困难就不复困难；我们相伴相助，不论什么苦涩艰辛的事，都能变得甜润。我们稍有一点快乐，也会变得非常快乐。 ——杨绛 《我们仨》
32. Our family is simple; the three of us are innocent. We have no desires and no disputes with others, only seeking to be together and to stay together, each doing what we can. When faced with difficulties, we share the burden, and the difficulties are no longer difficult; we accompany and help each other, and no matter how bitter and hard things are, they can become sweet. If we have a little happiness, it can become very happy. ——Yang Jiang, “We Three”

33.肉体包裹的心灵，也是经不起炎凉，受不得磕碰的。 ——杨绛
33. The soul wrapped in the body is also vulnerable to the vicissitudes of life and cannot withstand bumps and knocks. ——Yang Jiang

34.唯有身处卑微的人，最有机缘看到世态人情的真相。 ——杨绛
34. Only those in humble positions have the best opportunity to see the truth of human relationships and the world. ——Yang Jiang

35.离别拉得长，是增加痛苦还是减少痛苦呢？我算不清，但是我陪他走得愈远，愈怕从此不见。 ——杨绛 《我们仨》
35. Does prolonging the separation increase or decrease the pain? I can’t calculate it, but the farther I accompany him, the more afraid I am of never seeing him again. ——Yang Jiang, “We Three”

36.再过几天 是默存虚岁六十生辰，我们商量好：到那天两人要吃一顿寿面庆祝。再等着过七十 岁的生日，只怕轮不到我们了。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
36. In a few days, it will be Mo’s 60th birthday in nominal age. We agreed: on that day, the two of us will have a bowl of birthday noodles to celebrate. Then we’ll wait for the 70th birthday, but I’m afraid we won’t make it. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of Dry School”

37.他发愿说：“从今以后，咱们只有死别，不再生离。” ——杨绛
37. He vowed, “From now on, we will only part in death, not in life.” ——Yang Jiang

38.刚开始是假装坚强，后来就真的坚强了。 ——杨绛
38. At first, it was pretending to be strong, but later I became truly strong. ——Yang Jiang

40.那是一个幸运的人对不幸者的愧柞 ——杨绛
40. It is the guilt of a fortunate person towards the unfortunate. ——Yang Jiang

41.一个人经过不同程度的锻炼，就获得不同程度的修养、不同程度的效益。好比香料，捣得愈碎，磨得愈细，香得愈浓烈。我们曾如此渴望命运的波澜，到最后才发现：人生最曼妙的风景，竟是内心的淡定与从容……我们曾如此期盼外界的认可，到最后才知道：世界是自己的，与他人毫无关系！ ——杨绛 《岁感言》
41. A person who has undergone different degrees of tempering will gain different levels of cultivation and benefits. It is like spices; the more they are crushed and ground, the stronger and more fragrant they become. We once longed so much for the waves of fate, only to discover in the end that the most beautiful scenery in life is the calmness and composure within our hearts… We once eagerly awaited the recognition of the outside world, only to realize in the end that the world is our own and has nothing to do with others! ——Yang Jiang, “New Year’s Thoughts”

42.在大的时代里，个人正如一叶扁舟，唯有随波逐流，偶尔的讽刺、同情，但人也只能平静地一步步走向坟墓而已。命运于此，并不是一个悲剧，不过是巨大的讽刺。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
42. In the grand era, an individual is like a small boat, only able to drift with the current, occasionally experiencing irony and sympathy, but people can only calmly walk towards the grave step by step. Fate, in this case, is not a tragedy, but a huge irony. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of Dry School”

43.世态人情，比明月清风更饶有滋味；可作书读，可当戏看。书上的描摹，戏里的扮演，即使栩栩如生，究竟只是文艺作品；人情世态，都是天真自然的流露，往往超出情理之外，新奇得令人震惊，令人骇怪，给人以更深刻的效益，更奇妙的娱乐。惟有身处卑微的人，最有机缘看到世态人情的真相，而不是面对观众的艺术表演。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
43. Human relationships and the world are more fascinating than the bright moon and gentle breeze; they can be read like books and watched like plays. The descriptions in books and the performances in plays, even if lifelike, are ultimately just works of art; human relationships and the world are natural and innocent expressions that often go beyond reason, shocking and astonishing, providing deeper benefits and more wonderful entertainment. Only those in humble positions have the best opportunity to see the truth of human relationships and the world, rather than the artistic performances for the audience. ——Yang Jiang, “About to Drink Tea”

44.彦成忙说；”罗厚是个能干人，大有作为的。他有胆量，有识见，待人顶憨厚，我很喜欢他。“姚太太说：”他野头野脑，反正他自有主张。他可崇拜你呢！他想来不要人家做媒，总说他要娶个能和他打架的粗婆娘。最近，他舅妈来拜访以后，我问他粗婆娘找到没有，他说不找了，将来请许先生给他找个对象。“ ——杨绛 《 洗澡》
44. Yan Cheng hurriedly said, “Luo Hou is a capable man with great potential. He has courage, insight, and is very honest and kind to others. I really like him.” Mrs. Yao said, “He’s a bit wild and reckless, but he has his own ideas. He doesn’t want others to play matchmaker for him, always saying that he wants to marry a rough woman who can fight with him. Recently, after his aunt’s visit, I asked if he had found such a woman, and he said he wouldn’t look for her anymore. He would ask Mr. Xu to find a partner for him in the future.” ——Yang Jiang, “The Bath”

45.我国是国耻重重的弱国，跑出去仰人鼻息，做二等公民，我们不愿意。 ——杨绛
45. Our country is a weak nation with heavy national humiliation. We don’t want to go out and live under others’ mercy, being second-class citizens. ——Yang Jiang

46.他已骨瘦如柴，我也老态龙钟。他没有力量说话，还强睁着眼睛招待我……他现在故意慢慢儿走，让我一程一程送，尽量多聚聚，把一个小梦拉成一个万里长梦。这我愿意。送一程，说一声再见，又能见到一面。离别拉得长，是增加痛苦还是减少痛苦呢？我算不清。但是我陪他走得愈远，愈怕从此不见。 ——杨绛 《我们仨》
46. He has become as thin as a skeleton, and I am also old and feeble. He doesn’t have the strength to speak, but still forces himself to keep his eyes open to entertain me… He deliberately walks slowly now, letting me accompany him step by step, trying to spend more time together, stretching a short dream into a long journey. I am willing to do this. With each farewell, we meet again. Does prolonging the parting increase or decrease the pain? I can’t figure it out. But the farther I accompany him, the more afraid I become of never seeing him again. ——Yang Jiang, “We Three”

47.故人笑比中庭树，一日秋风一日疏。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
47. The laughter of old friends is like the trees in the courtyard, thinning day by day with the autumn wind. ——Yang Jiang, “To Drink Tea”

48.我在融洽而优裕的环境里生长，全不知世事。可是我很严肃认真地考虑自己“该”学什么。所谓“该”，指最有益于人，而我自己就不是白活了一辈子。我知道这个“该”是很夸大的，所以羞于解释。父亲说，没有什么该不该，最喜欢什么，就学什么。我却不放心。只问自己的喜爱，对吗？我喜欢文学，就学文学？爱读小说， 就学小说？ 父亲说，喜欢的就是性之所近，就是自己最相宜的。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
48. I grew up in a harmonious and comfortable environment, completely unaware of the world. But I seriously considered what I “should” learn, meaning what would be most beneficial to others, so that I wouldn’t have lived my life in vain. I knew this “should” was exaggerated, so I was embarrassed to explain. My father said there was no should or should not, and that I should learn what I liked most. But I wasn’t reassured. Is it right to just follow my own interests? If I like literature, should I study literature? If I love reading novels, should I study novels? My father said that what you like is closest to your nature, and that is what suits you best. ——Yang Jiang, “To Drink Tea”

49.我曾做过一个小梦，怪他一声不响地忽然走了。他现在故意慢慢走，让我一程一程送，尽量多聚聚，把一个小梦拉成一个万里长梦。这我愿意。送一程，说一声再见，又能见到一面。离别拉得长，是增加痛苦还是减少痛苦呢？我算不清。但是我陪他走的愈远，愈怕从此不见。 ——杨绛 《我们仨》
49. I once had a short dream, blaming him for leaving without a word. Now he deliberately walks slowly, letting me accompany him step by step, trying to spend more time together, stretching a short dream into a long journey. I am willing to do this. With each farewell, we meet again. Does prolonging the parting increase or decrease the pain? I can’t figure it out. But the farther I accompany him, the more afraid I become of never seeing him again. ——Yang Jiang, “We Three”

50.据说，朋友的友情往往建立在互相误解的基础上。恋爱大概也是如此。 ——杨绛 《洗澡》
50. It is said that friendships among friends are often based on mutual misunderstandings. Love might be like this as well. ——Yang Jiang, “The Bath”

51.“她的条件并不苛刻，只是很微妙。比如说，她要丈夫对她一片忠诚，依头顺脑，一切听她驾驭。他却不能是草包饭桶，至少，在台面上要摆得出，够得上资格。他又不能是招人钦慕的才子，也不能太年轻，太漂亮，最好是一般女人看不上的。他又得像精明主妇用的老妈子，最好身无背累，心无挂牵。” ——杨绛 《洗澡》
51. “Her requirements are not demanding, just very subtle. For example, she wants a husband who is loyal to her, obedient, and follows her guidance in everything. He cannot be a fool or a good-for-nothing; at least, he should be presentable and qualified. He should not be an admired talent or too young and beautiful;最好是一般女人看不上的. He should be like a capable housewife’s old maid, preferably with no burdens or attachments.” ——Yang Jiang, “The Bath”

52.”我们曾如此渴望命运的波澜，到最后才发现，人生最曼妙的风景，竟是内心的淡定与从容。我们曾如此期盼外界的认可，到最后才知道，世界是自己的，与他人毫无关系。 ——杨绛 《一百岁感言》”
52. “We once longed so much for the waves of fate, only to discover in the end that the most beautiful scenery in life is the calmness and composure within our hearts. We once eagerly awaited the approval of others, only to realize that the world is our own and has nothing to do with others.” ——Yang Jiang, “A Hundred Years of Reflections”

53.我至少还欠一只手，只好用牙齿帮忙。我用细绳缚住粗绳头，用牙咬住，然后 把一只床分三部分捆好，各件重复写上默存的名字。小小一只床分拆了几部，就好 比兵荒马乱中的一家人，只怕一出家门就彼此失散，再聚不到一处去。据默存来信， 那三部分重新团聚一处，确也害他好生寻找。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
53. I was at least short of a hand, so I had to use my teeth to help. I tied the thin rope to the end of the thick rope, held it with my teeth, and then tied three parts of a bed, each piece repeatedly writing Mo Cun’s name. A small bed, when dismantled into several parts, is like a family in a time of chaos and war, fearing that once they leave their home, they will be separated from each other and never reunite. According to Mo Cun’s letter, the three parts were reunited, which indeed caused him a great deal of searching. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of Dry School”

54.少年贪玩，青年迷恋爱情，壮年汲汲于成名成家，暮年自安于自欺欺人。人寿几何，顽铁能炼成的精金，能有多少？我们曾如此渴望命运的波澜，到最后才发现：人生最曼妙的风景，竟是内心的淡定与从容；我们曾如此期盼外界的认可，到最后才知道：世界是自己的，与他人毫无关系。 ——杨绛 《一百岁感言》
54. In youth, we are greedy for play; in young adulthood, we are infatuated with love; in middle age, we are eager for fame and family; in old age, we find comfort in self-deception. How long is human life? How much refined gold can be forged from crude iron? We once longed so much for the ups and downs of fate, only to discover in the end: the most beautiful scenery in life is the calmness and composure within our hearts; we once eagerly awaited the approval of the outside world, only to realize in the end: the world is our own, and has nothing to do with others. ——Yang Jiang, “One Hundred Years of Reflections”

55.一个人不想攀高就不怕下跌，也不用倾轧排挤，可以保其天真，成其自然，潜心一志完成自己能做的事。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
55. If one does not aspire to climb high, they need not fear falling, nor do they need to engage in scheming and exclusion. They can preserve their innocence, be natural, and concentrate on accomplishing what they are capable of doing. ——Yang Jiang, “About to Drink Tea”

56.我甘心当个“零”，人家不把我当个东西，我正好可以把看不起我的人看个透 ——杨绛
56. I am willing to be a “zero”; if others don’t regard me as anything, I can see through those who look down on me. ——Yang Jiang

57.我们曾如此期盼外界的认可，到最后才知道：世界是自己的，与他人毫无关系。 ——杨绛 《一百岁感言》
57. We once eagerly awaited the approval of the outside world, only to realize in the end: the world is our own, and has nothing to do with others. ——Yang Jiang, “One Hundred Years of Reflections”

58.我记得从前看见坐海船出洋的旅客，登上摆渡的小火轮，送行者就把许多彩色 的纸带抛向小轮船；小船慢馒向大船开去，那一条条彩色的纸带先后迸断，岸上就 拍手欢呼。也有人在欢呼声中落泪；迸断的彩带好似迸断的离情。这番送人上干校， 车上的先遣队和车下送行的亲人，彼此间的离情假如看得见，就决不是彩色的，也 不能一迸 就断。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
58. I remember seeing passengers boarding ocean liners in the past, stepping onto the small ferries; as the ferry moved away from the shore, well-wishers would throw colorful ribbons towards the small boat. As the boat slowly approached the larger ship, the colorful ribbons would one by one snap, and the people on the shore would clap and cheer. Some would shed tears amid the applause; the broken ribbons seemed like broken emotions. This time, when sending people to the dry school, if the emotions between the advance team on the bus and the relatives seeing them off could be seen, they would by no means be colorful, nor could they be broken just like that. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of Dry School”

60.我想到解放前夕，许多人惶惶然往国外跑，我们俩为什么有好几条路都不肯走呢？思想进步吗？觉悟高吗？默存常引柳永的词：“衣带渐宽终不悔，为伊消得人憔悴。”我们只是舍不得祖国，撇不下“伊”——也就是“咱们”或“我们”。尽管亿万“咱们”或“我们”中人素不相识，终归同属一体，痛痒相关，息息相连，都是 甩不开的自 己的一部分。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
60. I think of the eve of liberation, when many people were fleeing abroad in panic, why didn’t we take any of the several paths available to us? Were we more progressive in thought? More awakened? Mo Cun often quoted the words of Liu Yong: “Clothes gradually become loose, but never regret; for her, one’s willing to wither away.” We just couldn’t bear to leave our motherland, to part with “her” – which is “us” or “us.” Although countless people among the billions of “us” or “us” do not know each other, they are still part of the same whole, interconnected, and inseparable – all of them are parts of ourselves that cannot be discarded. ——Yang Jiang, “Six Records of Dry School”

61.上苍不会让所有幸福集中到某个人身上，得到了爱情未必拥有金钱；拥有金钱未必得到快乐；得到快乐未必拥有健康；拥有健康未必一切都会如愿以偿。知足常乐的心态才是淬炼心智、净化心灵的最佳途径。一切快乐的享受都属于精神，这种快乐把忍受变为享受，是精神对于物质的胜利。这便是人生哲学。 ——杨绛
61. God will not allow all happiness to be concentrated on one person. If you have love, you may not have money; if you have money, you may not have happiness; if you have happiness, you may not have health; if you have health, everything may not go as you wish. A contented and happy mindset is the best way to refine the mind and purify the soul. All happiness and enjoyment belong to the spirit; this kind of happiness turns endurance into pleasure, which is the victory of the spirit over material things. This is the philosophy of life. ——Yang Jiang

62.我在中学背熟的古文“天下一致而百虑，同归而殊途”还深深印在脑里。我既不能当医生治病救人，又不配当政治家治国安民，我只能就自己性情所近的途径，尽我的一份力。如今我看到自己幼而无知，老而无成当年却也曾那么严肃认真地要求自己，不禁愧汗自笑。不过这也足以证明：一个人没有经验，没有学问，没有天才， 也会有要好 向上的心——尽管有志无成。 ——杨绛 《将饮茶》
62. The ancient text I memorized in high school, “The world is united in one purpose, yet a hundred concerns arise; they all lead to the same destination, but by different paths,” is still deeply imprinted in my mind. I cannot be a doctor to cure diseases and save lives, nor can I be a politician to govern the country and ensure the well-being of its people. I can only do my best along the path that suits my temperament. Now, looking back at my ignorant youth and unfulfilled old age, I feel both ashamed and amused. However, this also proves that even without experience, knowledge, or talent, one can still have an aspiration for improvement – even if it remains unfulfilled. ——Yang Jiang, 《A Time to Drink Tea》

63.我们读书，总是从一本书的最高境界来欣赏和品评。我们使绳子，总是从最薄弱的一段来断定绳子的质量。坐冷板凳的呆子，待人不妨像读书般读；政治家或企业家等也许得把人当作绳子使用。 ——杨绛
63. When we read books, we always appreciate and evaluate them from their highest realm. When we use a rope, we judge its quality from its weakest part. Fools who sit on cold benches may as well treat people like books; politicians or entrepreneurs may have to use people as ropes. ——Yang Jiang

64.补了一条裤子，坐处象个布满经线纬线 的地球仪，而且厚如龟壳。默存倒很欣赏，说好极了，穿上好比随身带着个座儿， 随处都可以坐下。他说，不用筹备得太周全，只需等我也下去，就可以照看他。至 于家人团聚，等几时阿圆和得一乡间落户，待他们迎养吧。 ——杨绛 《干校六记》
64. After mending a pair of pants, the seat looks like a globe filled with meridians and parallels, and it’s as thick as a turtle shell. Mo Qian quite appreciated it, saying it was great, and that wearing it was like carrying a seat with him, allowing him to sit down anywhere. He said there was no need to prepare too thoroughly, just wait for me to join him, and he could take care of me. As for family reunions, we’ll have to wait until Ah Yuan and De Yi settle down in the countryside and support us in their care. ——Yang Jiang, 《Six Records of a Floating Life》

To make your life valuable and colorful, you cannot care too much about these grievances, nor let them tighten your soul and disrupt your life. You must learn to laugh them off, to treat them with detachment, and to transform potential energy. The wise know how to endure and forgive those around them, growing stronger in tolerance. ——Mo Yan

If literature did not write about wine and sex, what would be worth reading? If men were not infatuated with wine and sex, who would be willing to endure hardships? If one is not tempted by wine and sex, would life not come to an end? —— Mo Yan “Ode to Wine and Sex”

20.但那是历史，历史是只看结果而忽略手段的，就像人们只看到中国的万里长城、埃及的金字塔等许多伟大建筑，而看不到这些建筑下面的累累白骨。在过去的二十多年里，中国人用一种极端的方式终于控制了人口暴增的局面。——莫言 《蛙》
20. But that is history, which only looks at the results and ignores the means, just as people only see the Great Wall of China, the pyramids of Egypt, and many other great buildings, but fail to see the countless skeletons beneath these structures.

22. Recalling that her mother had said more than once during her lifetime, … A woman’s status is given birth through having children, a woman’s dignity is also given birth through having children, and a woman’s happiness and glory are all given birth through having children. A woman who does not have children experiences the greatest pain; a woman who does not have children is not considered a complete woman. Moreover, if a woman does not have children, her heart becomes hard, and if a woman does not have children, she ages particularly quickly. —— Mo Yan, “Frog”

23. “Why do flowers have a bloody smell? Because the earth is soaked with human blood.” What is this society? This is a boundless and endless dark jungle. Where is happiness? It is only a fleeting pleasure between the thorns of suffering. - Mo Yan, “Big Breasts and Wide Hips”

24. Procreation, how solemn and yet how secular, how serious and yet how absurd. - Mo Yan, “Frog”

30.文学和科学相比，的确没什么用处，但文学最大的用处，也许就是它没有用处。教育也如此，所谓的分数、学历、甚至知识都不是教育本质，教育本质是:一棵树摇动另一棵树，一朵云推动另一朵云，一个灵魂唤醒另一个灵魂。——莫言 《诺贝尔文学奖颁奖典礼》
30. Compared to science, literature indeed has little use, but perhaps its greatest use is that it has no use. Education is also like this; scores, degrees, and even knowledge are not the essence of education. The essence of education is: one tree shakes another, one cloud pushes another, and one soul awakens another. ——Mo Yan, “Nobel Prize in Literature Award Ceremony”

31.所谓爱情，其实就是一场大病。我的病就要好了。——莫言 《蛙》
31. So-called love is actually a serious illness. My illness is about to be cured. ——Mo Yan, “Frog”

32.极致的喜欢，更像是一个自己与另一个自己在光阴里的隔世重逢。愿为对方毫无道理地盛开，会为对方无可救药地投入，这都是极致的喜欢。——莫言 《生命里，总会有一朵祥云为你缭绕》
32. Ultimate liking is more like a reunion of oneself and another self in time, separated by generations. Willing to bloom irrationally for the other, and to be hopelessly devoted, these are all ultimate likes. ——Mo Yan, “In Life, There Will Always Be an Auspicious Cloud for You”

33.时间是剪不掉的，剪掉的是废话，剩下的是时间——莫言
33. Time cannot be cut off; what is cut off is nonsense, leaving only time behind. ——Mo Yan

34.这个世界，总有你不喜欢的人，也总有人不喜欢你。这都很正常。而且，无论你有多好，也无论对方有多好，都苛求彼此不得。因为，好不好是一回事，喜欢不喜欢是另一回事。 刻意去讨人喜欢，折损的，只能是自我的尊严。不要用无数次的折腰，去换得一个漠然的低眉。纡尊降贵换来的，只会是对方愈发地居高临下和颐指气使。没有平视，就永无对等。——莫言 《生命中总有一朵祥云为你缭绕》
34. In this world, there are always people you don’t like, and there are always people who don’t like you. This is normal. Moreover, no matter how good you are or how good the other person is, you cannot demand anything from each other. Because, being good or not is one thing, and liking or not is another. Deliberately trying to please others will only damage one’s dignity. Do not exchange countless bows for an indifferent glance. Humility and submission will only make the other person more arrogant and domineering. Without equality, there will never be equality. ——Mo Yan, “In Life, There Will Always Be an Auspicious Cloud for You”

35.一个有罪的人不能也没有权利去死，他必须活着，经受折磨，煎熬，像煎鱼一样翻来覆去地煎，像熬药一样咕嘟咕嘟地熬，用这样的方式来赎自己的罪，罪赎完了，才能一身轻松地去死。——莫言 《蛙》
35. A guilty person cannot and does not have the right to die; he must live, endure torture and suffering, like frying fish, flipping back and forth, like boiling medicine, bubbling and brewing, using this way to atone for his sins. Only after the sins are redeemed can he die with a relaxed heart. ——Mo Yan, “Frog”

36.这是个性相似的两个人走了不同的方向，互为正负，合起来是一个人，像一枚硬币的两面。”——莫言 《生死疲劳》
36. This is about two people with similar personalities taking different paths, one positive and one negative, together forming a whole person, like the two sides of a coin. ——Mo Yan, “Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out”

37.鹰对尸首也有兴趣，它们也是噬腐者，但它们不与乌鸦合流，保持着虚伪的高傲态度。——莫言 《丰乳肥臀》
37. Eagles are also interested in corpses; they are scavengers too, but they do not mix with crows, maintaining a hypocritical attitude of pride. ——Mo Yan, “Big Breasts and Wide Hips”

38.伟大的作品,没有必要像宠物一样遍地打滚赢得准贵族的欢心,也没有必要像鬃狗一样欢群吠叫。它应该是鲸鱼,在深海里,孤独地遨游着,响亮而沉重地呼吸。——莫言
38. A great work does not need to roll around like a pet to win the favor of the pseudo-aristocracy, nor does it need to bark like a hyena in a pack. It should be like a whale, swimming alone in the deep sea, breathing loudly and heavily. ——Mo Yan

39.孩子，这世界上，好多堂堂皇皇的事，都是在黑灯瞎火里干出来的。——莫言 《丰乳肥臀》
39. Child, many grand and glorious things in this world are done in the dark. ——Mo Yan, “Big Breasts and Wide Hips”

40.在血红黄昏的无边寂静里，响着沉重的脚步声，响着晚风从麦梢上掠过的声音，响着我沙哑的啼哭声，响着在墓地中央那棵华盖般的大桑树上昏睡一天的肥胖猫头鹰睡眼乍睁时的第一声哀怨的长鸣。——莫言 《丰乳肥臀》
40. In the boundless silence of the bloody dusk, there were heavy footsteps, the sound of the evening wind brushing through the wheat, my hoarse crying, and the first mournful cry of the fat owl that had been dozing on the big mulberry tree in the cemetery all day, as its eyes suddenly opened. ——Mo Yan, “Big Breasts and Wide Hips”

41.要把自己放在解剖台上，放在显微镜下。——莫言 《蛙》
41. One should put oneself on the dissection table, under the microscope. ——Mo Yan, “Frog”

42.老铁匠操着小锺，与其说是打，毋宁说是抚摸了一下那蓝钢。三个如狼似虎的儿子，各操着十八磅的大锺，各打了一锺，挟带着狂热与激昂，如同奔驰中的烈马之蹄，迅速无比但又节点分明地砸下去。奇怪的是竟然没有声音。往常这父子四人打铁时发出的声响半条街都能听到，连火车的汽笛声都能被盖住，但现在，这锻打，这劳动，剧烈至极，连墙角上蟋蟀的鸣叫都声声入耳，让人感觉到深秋之悲凉，生命之短暂。——莫言 《月光斩》
42. The old blacksmith struck the small bell, not so much hitting as caressing the blue steel. His three sons, fierce as wolves and tigers, each wielding an eighteen-pound hammer, struck the steel with fanaticism and fervor, like the hooves of a galloping horse, swift yet distinct in their rhythm. Strangely, there was no sound. Usually, the sound of the four blacksmiths at work could be heard throughout the street, even drowning out the train’s whistle. But now, the forging, the labor, was so intense that even the chirping of crickets in the corner was audible, making people feel the sadness of late autumn and the fleeting nature of life. ——Mo Yan, “Moonlight Slash”

43.棺木已经腐朽，母亲的骨质已经与泥土混为一体，我们只好象征性地挖起一些泥土移到新的墓穴里，也就是从那一刻开始，我感到我的母亲是大地的一部分，我站在大地上的诉说就是对我母亲的诉说。——莫言
43. The coffin had rotted away, and my mother’s bones had become one with the soil. We could only symbolically dig up some soil and move it to the new grave. It was from that moment that I felt my mother was a part of the earth, and my words spoken on the earth were a tribute to my mother. ——Mo Yan

44.狭窄的青石街道上人们摩肩擦背，碰碰撞撞，由于都沉默，人们变得特别友善。只有油锅里炸物的哧啦声，只有刀在案板上的噼啪声，只有人嘴咀嚼时的吧嗒声，只有那些被现场宰杀的小鸟的唧唧声。他混迹在这崭新城市的故意装哑巴的食客中，眼睛饱览了美食，鼻子饱嗅了美味，嘴巴却淡得飞出了小鸟。——莫言 《丰乳肥臀》
44. On the narrow bluestone streets, people brushed shoulders and bumped into each other, but because they were all silent, they became particularly friendly. There was only the sound of frying in the wok, the chopping knife on the cutting board, the smacking of people chewing, and the chirping of birds being slaughtered on the spot. He mingled with the deliberately mute diners in this new city, feasting his eyes on the delicious food, inhaling the aroma with his nose, but his mouth was so bland that it seemed to have flown away with the birds. ——Mo Yan, “Big Breasts and Wide Hips”

45.亲兄弟都要分家，一群杂姓人，混在一起，一个锅里摸勺子，哪里去找好？——莫言 《生死疲劳》
45. Even blood brothers have to split up, and a group of people with different surnames, mixed together, stirring spoons in the same pot, where can they find any good? ——Mo Yan, “Life and Death are Tired”

47.一群如痴如醉的观众，犹如汹涌的潮水，突破了监刑队的密集防线，扑了上来。疯狂的人群吓跑了吃人肉的凶禽和猛兽。他们要抢那只耳朵，也许是为了那只挂在耳垂上的金耳环。师傅见势不好，风快地旋下妓女的另外一只耳朵，用力地、夸张地甩到极远地方。疯狂的人群立刻分流。——莫言 《檀香刑》
47. A group of intoxicated spectators, like surging waves, broke through the dense defense line of the execution squad and rushed up. The frenzied crowd scared away the fierce birds and beasts that fed on human flesh. They wanted to grab that ear, perhaps for the gold earring hanging from the earlobe. Seeing the situation was not good, the master quickly twisted off the prostitute’s other ear and threw it forcefully and exaggeratedly to a distant place. The frenzied crowd immediately divided. ——Mo Yan, “Sandalwood Death Penalty”

48.如果我作为一个批评家，当然要尽量排除掉我个人的审美偏好，尽量客观地评价别人。但是我作为一个作家，我就可以非常个性化地选择我所喜欢的，不读我不喜欢的。刚才一位先生提到了作家和社会生活的关系，尤其是和政治之间的关系。好的文学、好的作家当然离不开社会生活。作为一个中国作家必须对中国社会所发生的一切保持一种高度的兴趣，而且有深入的了解和体验。——莫言
48. If I were a critic, of course, I would try to eliminate my personal aesthetic preferences and evaluate others as objectively as possible. But as a writer, I can very personally choose what I like and not read what I don’t like. Just now, a gentleman mentioned the relationship between writers and social life, especially the relationship with politics. Good literature and good writers are, of course, inseparable from social life. As a Chinese writer, one must maintain a high interest in everything happening in Chinese society and have an in-depth understanding and experience. ——Mo Yan

49.使那些凶狠残忍的人，骨头断裂，内脏震动，嘴巴里发出青蛙一样的叫声，就算金龙是你的儿子，但那也是你为驴为牛之前的往事，六道轮回之中，多少人吃了父亲，多少人又奸了自己的母亲，你何必那么认真?——莫言 《生死疲劳》
49. Let those fierce and cruel people have their bones broken, their internal organs shaken, and their mouths making frog-like cries. Even if the Golden Dragon is your son, that was before you were a donkey or an ox. In the cycle of the six realms, how many people have eaten their fathers and how many have committed incest with their mothers? Why take it so seriously? — Mo Yan, “Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out”

50.我跪在地上，给师傅磕头，我的眼睛里饱含着泪水，其实，舅舅的死活我并不关心，我关心的还是我自己。我的热泪盈眶，是因为我想不到白天的梦想很快地就变成了现实。我也想做一个可以不动声色地砍下人头的人，他们冷酷的风度如晶亮的冰块，在我的梦想中闪闪发光。——莫言 《檀香刑》
50. I knelt on the ground and kowtowed to my master, my eyes filled with tears. In fact, I didn’t care about my uncle’s life or death; what I cared about was myself. My tears welled up because I couldn’t imagine that my daytime dreams would quickly become a reality. I also wanted to be someone who could calmly chop off people’s heads, their cold demeanor shining like crystal ice, twinkling in my dreams. — Mo Yan, “Sandalwood Death”

51.墙上悬挂着一些因年久而丧失了色彩的油画，画上画着一些光屁股的小孩，她们都生着肉翅膀，胖得像红皮大西瓜，后来我才知道他们的名字叫天使。教堂尽头，是一个砖砌的台子，台子上吊着一个用沉重坚硬的枣木雕成的男人，由于雕刻技术太差，或者由于枣木质地太硬，所以这吊着的男人基本不像人，后来我知道这就是我们的耶稣基督，一个了不起的大英雄、大善人。——莫言 《丰乳肥臀》
51. On the wall hung some oil paintings that had lost their color over the years, depicting some naked children with meaty wings, fat like red melons. Later, I learned that their names were angels. At the end of the church was a brick platform, on which hung a man carved from heavy and hard jujube wood. Due to the poor carving technique or the hard texture of the jujube wood, the hanging man hardly looked human. Later, I learned that this was Jesus Christ, a great hero and kind person. — Mo Yan, “Big Breasts and Wide Hips”

52.我想起母亲生前不止一次地说过，女人生来是干什么的？女人归根结底是为了生孩子而来。女人的地位是生孩子生出来的，女人的尊严也是生孩子生出来的，女人的幸福和荣耀也都是生孩子生出来的。一个女人不生孩子是最大的痛苦，一个女人不生孩子算不上一个完整的女人，而且，女人不生孩子，心就变硬了，女人不生孩子，老得格外快。——莫言 《蛙》
52. I remember my mother saying more than once before she passed away, what are women born for? Women are ultimately here to give birth. A woman’s status, dignity, happiness, and glory all come from giving birth. A woman who doesn’t have children is the greatest pain; a woman who doesn’t have children is not a complete woman. Moreover, if a woman doesn’t have children, her heart becomes hard, and she ages格外快. — Mo Yan, “Frog”

53.千里姻缘一线穿，一生的情缘，都是天凑地合。——莫言 《红高粱家族•红高粱》
53. A thousand miles of marriage is connected by a single thread, and the affection of a lifetime is a match made by heaven and earth. — Mo Yan, “Red Sorghum Family • Red Sorghum”

54.这么多年来，我总结了一条经验，解决棘手问题的最上乘方法是：静观其变，顺水推舟。李手说。——莫言 《蛙》
54. Over the years, I have总结出 a principle: the best way to deal with tricky problems is to observe and go with the flow. — Li Shousheng, “Frog”

55.‘无恩不结父子，无仇不结婆媳’——莫言
55. “No favor, no father and son; no grudge, no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.” — Mo Yan

56.那条黑爪子白狗走到桥头，停住脚，回头望望土路，又抬起下巴望望我，用那只浑浊的狗眼。狗眼里的神色遥远荒凉，含有一种模糊的暗示，这遥远荒凉的暗示唤起内心深处一种迷蒙的感受。——莫言 《白狗秋千架》
56. The black-pawed white dog walked to the bridgehead, stopped, looked back at the dirt road, and then raised its chin to look at me with its turbid eyes. The distant and desolate expression in the dog’s eyes contained a vague hint, which aroused a hazy feeling deep inside my heart. — Mo Yan, “White Dog and Swing”

Bai Yansong’s quotations, Bai Yansong’s famous words

1.当世界上的所有人都把欲望当作理想， 把世故当作成熟， 把麻木当作深沉，把怯懦当作稳健，把油嘴滑舌当作智慧，那只能说这个社会的底线已经被击穿，所以你们没有资格说我的勇敢是莽撞，执着是偏激，求真是无知，激情是幼稚。
1. When everyone in the world takes desire as the ideal, takes sophistication as maturity, takes numbness as profundity, takes cowardice as prudence, and takes glibness as wisdom, it can only be said that the bottom line of this society has been breached. So you have no right to say that my bravery is reckless, persistence is extremism, seeking truth is ignorance, and passion is immaturity.

2.一群人急匆匆的赶路，突然，一个人停了下来。旁边的人很奇怪：为什么不走了？停下的人一笑：走得太快，灵魂落在了后面，我要等等它。是啊，我们都走得太快。然而，如果走得太远，会不会忘了当初为什么出发？——《幸福了吗》
2. A group of people are hurrying on their way, suddenly, one person stops. The people nearby are curious: Why not keep going? The person who stopped smiles: I walked too fast, and my soul fell behind. I have to wait for it. Yes, we all walk too fast. However, if we go too far, will we forget why we started in the first place? - “Happy or Not”

3. In a person’s life, there will always be times when they face a personal war. At such times, your inner world is in chaos and turmoil, but to others, you just seem a little more silent than usual, and no one finds it strange. This war is destined to be fought alone. - “Painfully Happy”

4.一生中总会遇到这样的时候，你的内心已经兵荒马乱天翻地覆了，可是在别人看来你只是比平时沉默了一点，没人会觉得奇怪。这种战争，注定单枪匹马。——《青年文摘》
4. In a person’s life, there will always be times when your inner world is in chaos and turmoil, but to others, you just seem a little more silent than usual, and no one finds it strange. This war is destined to be fought alone. - “Youth Digest”

5. No generation’s youth is easy. Each generation has its own destiny, grievances, struggles, and struggles, and there is nothing to complain about.

6.有时候，我们活得很累，并非生活过于刻薄，而是我们太容易被外界的氛围所感染，被他人的情绪所左右。行走在人群中，我们总是感觉有无数穿心掠肺的目光，有很多飞短流长的冷言，最终乱了心神，渐渐被缚于自己编织的一团乱麻中。其实你是活给自己看的，没有多少人能够把你留在心上。
6. Sometimes we feel tired, not because life is too harsh, but because we are too easily influenced by the atmosphere around us and swayed by others’ emotions. Walking among crowds, we always feel countless piercing gazes and hear many cold words, which eventually disrupt our peace of mind and gradually trap us in a tangled web of our own making. In fact, you live for yourself, and not many people can truly keep you in their hearts.

7.走到生命的哪一个阶段，都该喜欢那一段时光，完成那一阶段该完成的职责，顺生而行，不沉迷过去，不狂热地期待着未来，生命这样就好。不管正经历着怎样的挣扎与挑战，或许我们都只有一个选择：虽然痛苦，却依然要快乐，并相信未来。——《痛并快乐着》
7. No matter which stage of life we reach, we should enjoy that period of time and fulfill the responsibilities of that stage. Go with the flow, without indulging in the past or fanatically anticipating the future. Life should be like this. No matter what struggles and challenges we are facing, perhaps we only have one choice: to be happy despite the pain and to believe in the future. — “Pain and Happiness Coexist”

8.上世纪的战乱时代，偌大的中国，放不下一张安静的书桌。而今日，偌大的中国，再难找到平静的心灵。不平静，就不会幸福。平静才是当今真正的奢侈品。——《幸福了吗》
8. In the chaotic era of the last century, there was no room for a quiet desk in the vast land of China. Today, it is even harder to find a tranquil heart in this vast country. Without peace, there can be no happiness. Peace is the true luxury of our time. — “Are You Happy?”

Do good deeds, speak kind words, and have good thoughts; 5. Great sorrow has no tears, great enlightenment has no words, great joy has no sound, and great love has no voice; 6.

11.当天下都知道什么是美，并以之为潮流的时候，它有可能变成一种丑。对于女同胞来说更是如此了，满大街都穿红裙子的时候，你再穿红裙子，会觉得很难堪。别说满大街了，就是单位里有另一个人跟你穿了同样的衣服，撞衫，都让你很难受。同理，当天下都以某种行为作为善的标本，模仿和雷同之下，不善就出现了。——白岩松《白说》
11. When everyone in the world knows what beauty is and follows it as a trend, it may become ugly. This is especially true for women. When everyone on the street is wearing red skirts, wearing one yourself can feel embarrassing. Don’t even talk about the whole street; if someone in your workplace wears the same clothes as you, having the same outfit can make you feel uncomfortable. Similarly, when everyone considers a certain behavior as a model of goodness, imitation and conformity can lead to unkindness.

16.你看，说评书也好，说相声也好，凡是高手，节奏都把握得好。马三立的单口，用他的节奏把你绕进去：一个小纸包打开一层又一层，打开一层又一层，最后告诉你，“挠挠”，所有人都乐了。——白岩松《白说》
16. You see, whether it’s storytelling or crosstalk, masters always have a good grasp of rhythm. Ma Sanli’s monologue, with his rhythm, draws you in: a small paper package is opened layer after layer, and then finally, he tells you, “scratch,” and everyone laughs. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

17.传媒原本应该具有五种功能：解闷、解惑、解气、解密、解决。解闷需要娱乐，解惑需要知识，解气需要分寸，解密需要勤奋和时代进步，解决需要影响力和耐心。如果传媒只剩下解闷，时间长了，观众就该去解手了。——白岩松《白说》

If media is left with only entertainment, over time, the audience should go to the restroom. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

18.一味地宣传“大公无私”，鼓励“见义勇为”和“集体利益高于个人利益”，是扭曲的价值观。一个连自己都不爱的人，怎么会去爱别人、爱社会呢？反过来，只有当帮助别人成为自己的需求，而且是实实在在的需求时，公益、慈善、爱才真正具备了推动的基础，而不是作秀。——白岩松《白说》
18. Unquestioningly promoting “selflessness,” encouraging “seeing justice and acting,” and “putting collective interests above personal interests” is a distorted set of values. How can someone who doesn’t even love themselves love others or society? On the contrary, only when helping others becomes a genuine need can public welfare, charity, and love truly have a foundation for progress, rather than just putting on a show. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

19.所以我最近常常开玩笑说：我正以做志愿者的心态，在CCTV继续干我该干的事儿！——白岩松《白说》

21. Being here, not yet leaving, I have a responsibility to defend the territory; striking the bell on time, being punctual, can be called dedication; more importantly, I have to turn daily work into the faith of myself and others. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

22.你们要相信，白岩松说的很多话不是句号，而是问号；不是答案，而是问题。白岩松不是要给你灌输什么，而是在碰撞中把问号留在你的心里，然后在以后的日子里自己给出答案。——白岩松《白说》
22. You should believe that many of the words Bai Yansong says are not full stops, but question marks; not answers, but questions. Bai Yansong is not trying to instill anything in you, but to leave the question marks in your heart through collisions, and then provide your own answers in the days to come. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

23.进入互联网时代，人人都在聊转型，聊新媒体取代旧媒体。但是我说，内容为王就是一个不变的规律。无论你用微信写情书，还是用鹅毛笔写情书，你的心跳是一样的。唯一不同的是，微信时代的你，可能被回绝得更快。——白岩松《白说》
23. In the internet era, everyone is talking about transformation and new media replacing old media. But I say, “content is king” is an unchanging rule. Whether you write love letters with WeChat or a quill pen, your heartbeat is the same. The only difference is that in the WeChat era, you might be rejected more quickly. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

24.理性，是目前中国舆论场上最缺乏的东西，有理性，常识就不会缺席，但现在，理性还是奢侈品。也因此，中国舆论场上总是在争斗、抢夺、站队并解气解闷不解决。——白岩松《白说》
24. Rationality is the most lacking element in China’s current public opinion field. With rationality, common sense will not be absent, but now, rationality is still a luxury. As a result, China’s public opinion field is always engaged in strife, grabbing, taking sides, venting, and solving boredom without solving problems. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

25.比如说佛山一家养老院就曾经抱怨，平常八天也见不着一拨志愿者，重阳节那天，一天来八拨，老人们得洗八回脚。其实这恰恰提醒我们，怎样通过有序有效的组织，把志愿服务做得更好。——白岩松《白说》
25. For example, an elderly care center in Foshan once complained that volunteers rarely visit in normal times, but on the Double Ninth Festival, eight groups came in one day, and the elderly had to wash their feet eight times. This actually reminds us of how to better organize and carry out volunteer services effectively. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

26.人们号称最幸福的岁月其实往往是最痛苦的，只不过回忆起来非常美好。——白岩松《白说》
26. The years people claim to be the happiest are often the most painful, but when remembered, they are very beautiful. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

27.其实老祖宗早已明白这个道理，说：“人生不如意事十有八九”。既然不如意事十有八九，为什么我们从来不教“十有八九”时的心态和应对能力？十之一二的成功，被看得极其重要；十之八九的挫折，也被放大到无以复加。——白岩松《白说》
27. In fact, our ancestors had already understood this truth, saying, “In life, there are more than eighty不如意 things out of a hundred.” Since there are more than eighty不如意 things, why don’t we teach the mentality and coping skills for “more than eighty” situations? The ten percent of success is considered extremely important, while the eighty percent of setbacks are magnified to an unbearable extent. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

28.生命中有一个很奇妙的逻辑，如果你真的过好今天，明天也还不错。——白岩松《白说》
28. There is a wonderful logic in life: if you truly live well today, tomorrow will be pretty good as well. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

29.我也曾经拥有一个成为富二代的机会，但是我爸没珍惜。——白岩松《白说》
29. I once had the opportunity to become a rich second generation, but my dad didn’t cherish it. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

30.在这个开放的时代，谁的话也不能一言兴邦或一言丧邦，自己的声音不过是千万声音中的一种，为别人的生活和我们的社会，起一点哪怕小小的作用。——白岩松《白说》
30. In this open era, no one’s words can make the country prosper or perish with a single sentence. Our own voice is just one among millions of others, playing even a small role in other people’s lives and our society. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

31.如果传媒只剩下解闷，时间长了，观众就该去解手了。——白岩松《白说》
31. If media only serves to entertain, eventually, the audience will have to “go to the bathroom” as well. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

32.在生命的不同阶段，不同的书籍给你填注了不同的营养。有趣的是可能你都把它忘了，但是在遇到某一个事情，或者思考某一个问题的时候，你曾经读过的一本书，还会再次帮助你和激活你。——白岩松《白说》
32. At different stages of life, different books provide you with different nutrients. Interestingly, you might have forgotten them, but when you encounter a certain situation or think about a certain problem, a book you once read will help and inspire you again. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

33.尤其对于成长中的年轻人，有两个最大的敌人：一是突如其来的赞赏和表扬，一是时常会有的打击和不顺。这两道关都要过，过不去就很难前行。表扬来得太早，毁人也毁得够狠，我周围有一些人就是如此倒下的，根基不稳，空中楼阁，他Hold不住。——白岩松《白说》
33. Especially for young people in growth, there are two biggest enemies: one is the sudden praise and compliments, and the other is the constant setbacks and frustrations. Both of these hurdles must be overcome; failing to do so makes it difficult to move forward. Praise coming too early can be quite destructive, and some people around me have fallen like this, with unstable foundations and unable to hold on to the illusory success. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

34.我姓白，所以这本书叫《白说》。其实，不管我姓什么，这本书都该叫《白说》。——白岩松《白说》
34. My surname is Bai, so this book is called “Bai Shuo.” In fact, no matter what my surname is, this book should be called “Bai Shuo.” - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

35.季羡林老先生在《八十述怀》这篇散文中，写过这么一句话：“如今竟然活到了八十岁……未来的路不会比过去的更笔直、更平坦。但是我并不恐惧。我眼前还闪动着野百合和野蔷薇的影子。”老人的这句话其实就是说，他依然有梦想，梦想牵着他向前走。——白岩松《白说》
35. In the essay “Eighty Years of Reflection” by the late Mr. Ji Xianlin, he wrote, “Now I have actually lived to be eighty years old… The road ahead will not be any straighter or smoother than the past. But I am not afraid. I still see the shadows of wild lilies and roses before me.” The old man’s words mean that he still has dreams, and these dreams lead him forward. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

36.当今社会，除了物质捐赠，我们很少提倡思想捐赠、时间捐赠、爱的捐赠。我们只理解“硬慈善”，一提到慈善，都以金钱和物质来衡量，而缺乏对与人交流、心理支援、提供就业模式、帮人走出孤独等“软慈善”的理解。——白岩松《白说》
36. In today’s society, apart from material donations, we rarely advocate for the donation of ideas, time, love, and support. We only understand “hard charity,” measuring charity in terms of money and material, and lack the understanding of “soft charity” such as communication, psychological support, providing employment models, and helping people escape loneliness. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

37.当我抱怨的时候，世界越变越小，只剩下我自己；而当我原谅了肇事者，我发现还可以包容更多的人，心胸逐渐打开，我便走出了自己的房间。——白岩松《白说》
37. When I complain, the world becomes smaller and smaller, until only I am left; but when I forgive the perpetrator, I find that I can tolerate more people, my heart gradually opens, and I step out of my own room. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

38.因为人生淡，年轻的时候味道少，他需要用更强烈的味道，去给自己一种触碰。——白岩松《白说》
38. Because life is bland, young people have fewer flavors, and they need stronger tastes to give themselves a sense of touch. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

40.人生中得意和失意都只占%，剩下的%是平淡。你能不能把那%的平淡过得不那么平淡？不太容易，尤其年轻的时候更不容易。——白岩松《白说》
40. In life, success and failure each account for only 10%, with the remaining 80% being plain. Can you make that 80% of plain life less plain? It’s not easy, especially when you’re young. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

41.面对现实说话，你的困扰是：树欲静而风不止。而你唯一能做出的选择是：无论风怎样动，树静。——白岩松《白说》
41. Face reality and speak; your trouble is that the tree wants to be still while the wind keeps blowing. The only choice you can make is: no matter how the wind moves, the tree remains calm. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

42.很长时间以来，我在研究中国志愿服务的时候发现，大的活动志愿者云集，一呼百应，小的活动志愿者却寥寥无几；远方的志愿服务我们立即出发，身边的志愿服务却往往被忽略不计。我觉得这很不正常，有点儿本末倒置。——白岩松《白说》
42. For a long time, in my research on volunteer service in China, I found that large-scale events attract numerous volunteers, but small-scale events have very few; we immediately set off for distant volunteer services, while neglecting the volunteer services around us. I think this is very abnormal, a bit of putting the cart before the horse. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

43.总有人说，中国人是自私的、冷漠的，不肯互相帮助，不愿牺牲自己，其实不是这样。数千年的农耕文明，局限于熟人圈的社交活动，使得中国人的优点都体现在了熟人生活圈里。——白岩松《白说》
43. Some people always say that Chinese people are selfish and indifferent, unwilling to help each other and sacrifice themselves. In fact, this is not the case. The thousands of years of agricultural civilization, limited to the social activities within the circle of acquaintances, have made the advantages of Chinese people reflected in the lives of acquaintances. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

44.中国正在发生深刻变革，由追求物质目标的改革向追求非物质目标的改革进行转变，由一个效率优先的改革向公平优先的改革进行转变，这是中国志愿服务发展不可忽略的重要背景。——白岩松《白说》
44. China is undergoing profound changes, shifting from a reform that pursues material goals to one that pursues non-material goals, and from a reform that prioritizes efficiency to one that prioritizes fairness. This is an important background for the development of volunteer service in China that should not be ignored. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

45.国家的软实力，体现在一个又一个细节上，有价值的输出、理性的情怀，也有制度的人性化，民众的素养。——白岩松《白说》
45. The soft power of a country is reflected in detail after detail, valuable output, rational sentiment, as well as humanized systems and public quality. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

46.很多人的失败感，不是来自自己的感受，而是别人的眼光与当下世俗的标准。——白岩松《白说》
46. Many people’s sense of failure does not come from their own feelings, but from the eyes of others and the current secular standards. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

47.天下无难事，只怕有心人，我认为这个“心”指的是敬畏心，即便是最熟练的事，也当作第一次去面对。——白岩松《白说》
47. There is no difficult task in the world, only those who are afraid of having a heart. I think this “heart” refers to a heart of reverence, even the most skilled tasks should be treated as if it were the first time. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

48.如果我今天在这儿讲话，在座各位有的玩手机，有的聊天，一会儿走了一半，你觉得我会幸福吗？你们也一样，如果今天下午怀着去动物园看猴儿的心情，来这里看我，见到了活的，又觉得某些话讲得还有点道理，算是额外收获，还不收门票，你也能找到一点幸福感。——白岩松《白说》
48. If I were speaking here today, and some of you were playing with your phones, chatting, and half of you left after a while, would I be happy? You are the same, if this afternoon you came here with the mentality of going to the zoo to see monkeys, saw a living one, and found some of the words spoken to be somewhat reasonable, as an extra gain, without even charging an admission fee, you can also find a sense of happiness. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

49.也许会有人说，互联网时代了，世界的门可以随时打开。是的，没问题，但打开也是有代价的。——白岩松《白说》
49. Some may say that in the Internet age, the doors to the world can be opened at any time. Yes, no problem, but there is a price for opening. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

50.学会接受平淡这一生活现实，然后把平淡向幸福那靠。——白岩松《白说》
50. Learn to accept the reality of ordinary life, and then move the ordinary towards happiness. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

51.我在书里写过一句话，叫作“走，就有希望”，就是这个道理。总远远惦记着梦想，会被现实和梦想之间的差距打败；不如暂时忘记梦想，脚踏实地，做好眼前的每一件小事，生活迟早会回馈你一份厚礼。——白岩松《白说》
51. I once wrote a sentence in a book, “Go, and there is hope.” That’s the truth. Always thinking about dreams from afar will be defeated by the gap between reality and dreams; it’s better to temporarily forget the dreams, be down-to-earth, and do every little thing in front of you well, life will eventually reward you with a generous gift. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

52.我一直以为，幸福像鞋，舒不舒服您自己知道。甭管多大的名牌，您穿不合适，该硌脚一样硌脚。你妈做的面条，就是比饭店里一百多块的面条好吃。——白岩松《白说》
52. I always thought that happiness is like shoes, whether it’s comfortable or not, you know best. No matter how big the brand, if you wear it and it doesn’t fit, it will still hurt your feet. The noodles made by your mother are better than the noodles in the restaurant that cost more than a hundred yuan. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

53.人从出生开始，就是一条单行线，直奔死亡而去。——白岩松《白说》
53. From the moment of birth, a person is on a one-way street, heading straight for death. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

54.体育教会孩子们如何去赢，同时，教会孩子们如何体面并且有尊严地输。——白岩松《白说》
54. Sports teach children how to win, and at the same time, teach children how to lose gracefully and with dignity. —— Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

55.其实炫耀读过多少书和炫富没多少区别吗。当你开始用坚持这样的字眼去描述读书时，已经坏了。——白岩松《白说》
55. Actually, showing off how many books you’ve read is not much different from flaunting wealth. When you start using words like “perseverance” to describe reading, it’s already ruined. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

56.三十年，有时候连一个逗号都算不上，更不要说句号，顶多在回忆当中留下一个感叹号！——白岩松《白说》
56. Thirty years, sometimes not even a comma, let alone a period, at most leaving an exclamation mark in memory! — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

57.厦门的诗人舒婷，很多年前路过神女峰，写下“与其在悬崖上展览千年，不如在爱人肩头痛哭一晚”。这两行诗，有哪个字你不认识吗？没有。但是她把我们都很熟悉的汉字重新组合在一起，就诞生了“人人心中有，个个笔下无”的意境，而且成为一个时代的标志。诗歌里就存在着这些看似无用、但每天都在重新生长的中文的无限可能。——白岩松《白说》
57. The poet from Xiamen, Shu Ting, passed by the Goddess Peak many years ago and wrote, “It’s better to cry on a lover’s shoulder for one night than to be displayed on a cliff for a thousand years.” Do you not recognize any character in these two lines? No. But she recombined the familiar Chinese characters, creating an “everyone has it in their heart, but no one can write it” artistic conception, and it became a symbol of an era. Poetry contains these seemingly useless, yet endlessly regenerating possibilities of Chinese every day. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

58.有了感触不能立即表达，而是要去追寻——经历了足够漫长的追寻，等到一切成熟了，才会有更完美的表达。——白岩松《白说》
58. When you have feelings, you can’t express them immediately; instead, you have to pursue them. After a long enough pursuit, when everything is mature, there will be a more perfect expression. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

59.只有接受平淡，才有可能不平淡。如果总是试图对抗平淡，你注定平庸。——白岩松《白说》
59. Only by accepting mediocrity can you possibly become extraordinary. If you always try to fight against mediocrity, you are doomed to be mediocre. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

60.此时此刻的中国最大的特质是抱怨，我们可以到任何一家餐馆去听，小三在抱怨正房，领导在抱怨下属，下属在抱怨老板，老板在抱怨体制，体制内在抱怨体制外……反正所有人都在抱怨，因为大家都觉得责任是别人的，与自己无关。每个人都在抱怨中把自己给择出去了。其实，你什么样中国就什么样，你进步了中国就进步了，但是中国人不会用这样的思维去思考问题。——白岩松《白说》
60. The biggest characteristic of China at this moment is complaining. We can go to any restaurant and listen: the mistress is complaining about the legal wife, the leader is complaining about the subordinates, the subordinates are complaining about the boss, the boss is complaining about the system, and the system is complaining about the outside… Everyone is complaining because everyone thinks the responsibility is someone else’s and has nothing to do with themselves. Everyone is choosing themselves out in the complaints. In fact, what you are like, China is like; if you progress, China progresses. But Chinese people don’t think about problems in this way. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

61.只有把生理上的治疗技能和心理上的抚慰加在一起，才构成“医者仁心、治病救人”这八个字的全部含义。——白岩松《白说》
61. Only by combining physiological treatment skills and psychological comfort can we fully express the meaning of “a doctor’s benevolence and healing the sick.” — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

62.但现在，理性还是奢侈品。也因此，中国舆论场上总是在斗争、抢夺、站队并解气解闷不解决。——白岩松《白说》
62. But now, rationality is still a luxury. Therefore, the Chinese public opinion field is always struggling, grabbing, taking sides, and venting, but not solving problems. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

63.只有既得到过很多表扬，也经历过很多挫折的人，才能作为一名合格的毕业生，去面对前程未卜、风险未知的人生旅途。——白岩松《白说》
63. Only those who have received much praise and experienced many setbacks can become qualified graduates to face the uncertain and risky journey of life. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

64.为什么有的人每天工作十几个小时，甚至会有生命危险，收入还很低，比尔•盖茨整天飞来飞去、看起来优哉游哉，却那么富有呢？因为前者的工作随时可以被取代，任何人经过短期培训都能做到，而世界上只有一个比尔•盖茨。——白岩松《白说》
64. Why do some people work for more than ten hours a day, even risking their lives, and still have low income, while Bill Gates flies around and seems carefree, yet is so wealthy? Because the former’s work can be replaced at any time; anyone can do it after short-term training, while there is only one Bill Gates in the world. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

65.拥有多余东西的人，要与其他人共同分享。这种多余不仅仅指物质的多余，还包括精力、精神、情感、信仰等。《道德经》里明确地说，“损有余而补不足”，这是天之道。——白岩松《白说》
65. People who have more than they need should share with others. This excess is not only about material abundance but also includes energy, spirit, emotions, faith, etc. The “Tao Te Ching” clearly states, “Reduce the surplus and supplement the不足,” which is the way of heaven. — Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

66.大家最熟悉的是第一章第一句：“道可道，非常道；名可名，非常名。”按正宗的解释，就是“能说得很明白的‘道’就不是‘大道’”。但换个角度，那时没有句读，所以可以有另外一种句读方式：“道可，道非，常道；名可，名非，常名。”——白岩松《白说》
66. The most familiar phrase is the first sentence of Chapter 1: “The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name.” According to the orthodox interpretation, it means “The ‘Tao’ that can be clearly expressed is not the ‘Great Tao’.” However, from another perspective, since there were no punctuation marks at that time, there could be another way of reading it: “The Tao is acceptable, the Tao is not acceptable, the eternal Tao; the name is acceptable, the name is not acceptable, the eternal name.” - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

67.当下是一个成功学泛滥的时代。中国的很多扭曲和乱象，都与追求面上的成功有关。我们只是追求现实的结果，往往不追求真理；我们把结果看得非常重，因此我们从不享受过程；我们为了实现某种期待，往往不择手段。——白岩松《白说》
67. The present era is flooded with the pursuit of success. Many distortions and chaos in China are related to the pursuit of superficial success. We only pursue the results in reality, often not seeking the truth; we attach great importance to the results, so we never enjoy the process; in order to achieve certain expectations, we often resort to any means. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

68.有时候，也许老天很着急，本想给你一个更美好，更有趣的人生，可是你在消沉抱怨当中，让机会一一错过了。等你终于想到那是命运的垂青之手在敲门时，再开门已经晚了。——白岩松《白说》
68. Sometimes, perhaps God is very anxious. He wanted to give you a better and more interesting life, but you missed the opportunities one by one in your depression and complaints. When you finally realize that it was the hand of fate knocking on the door, it’s already too late to open the door. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

69.人生如茶须慢品，岁月似歌要静听。——白岩松《白说》
69. Life is like tea that needs to be savored slowly; years are like songs that require quiet listening. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

70.几年前，有媒体记者采访我，最后一个问题是：你会让你的孩子子承父业，也干新闻吗？我的回答斩钉截铁：我有多恨他才这么干啊？不会的。——白岩松《白说》
70. A few years ago, a journalist from the media interviewed me, and the last question was: “Would you let your child follow in your footsteps and also work in journalism?” My answer was resolute: “How much do I hate him to do that? No.” - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

71.知识分子在目前的中国，大多只是“公知”，很公共，却常常不够“知识分子”。其中很多人，与“理性”无法靠边，而这些人，又怎能列入到知识分子的群落中呢？真正的知识分子，不仅要有当下，更要有责任与远方。——白岩松《白说》
71. In today’s China, most intellectuals are merely “public intellectuals,” very public but often not sufficiently “intellectual.” Many of them cannot be associated with “rationality,” and how can such people be included in the group of intellectuals? True intellectuals should not only have the present but also have responsibility and the future. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

72.总远远惦记着梦想，会被现实和梦醒之间的差距打败；不如暂时忘记梦想，脚踏实地，做好眼前的每一件小事，生活迟早会回馈你一份厚礼。——白岩松《白说》
72. Always thinking about dreams from afar will be defeated by the gap between reality and waking from the dream; it’s better to temporarily forget the dreams, be down-to-earth, and do every little thing in front of you well, life will eventually reward you with a generous gift. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

73.国外也有一句谚语：“不要尝试去发明轮子。”潜台词是老祖宗已经试验过无数回，圆形的轮子最省劲，但总有一些人隔三差五就琢磨，如果是方的呢？菱形呢？八角呢？最后全折里头，一事无成。——白岩松《白说》
73. There is also a proverb abroad: “Don’t try to reinvent the wheel.” The implication is that our ancestors have tested countless times, and round wheels are the most efficient. But there are always some people who ponder every now and then, what if it’s square? Diamond-shaped? Octagonal? In the end, they all fail and accomplish nothing. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

74.学生毕业时，我会每人送他们一套《传家》，那里，有中国人的日子与趣味。在扉页，我写两行字：人生如茶须慢品，岁月似歌要静听。——白岩松《白说》
74. When students graduate, I will give each of them a set of “Family Heirlooms,” where there are the days and interests of the Chinese people. On the title page, I write two lines: Life is like tea that needs to be savored slowly; years are like songs that require quiet listening. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

75.你们也看到《新闻+》里的我，在直播，在谈论天下，显得很不平淡。但这半小时对我来说不是最重要的，最重要是在这之前的很多很多个小时，我在做什么样的准备，准备到什么程度才让自己满意？冰山藏在海面下的十分之九，就是我的日子，非常平淡。——白岩松《白说》
75. You have also seen me in “News+,” live broadcasting and discussing the world, which seems very extraordinary. But this half hour is not the most important to me. The most important thing is the many hours before this, what kind of preparation I am doing, and to what extent I am satisfied? Nine-tenths of the iceberg hidden under the sea is my life, very ordinary. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

76.我用嘴活着，也自然活在别人嘴里。互联网时代更强化了这种概念，说话的风险明显加大。今天为你点赞，明天对你点杀，落差大到可以发电，你无处可躲。——白岩松《白说》
76. I live with my mouth, and naturally, I live in other people’s mouths. The Internet era has further strengthened this concept, and the risks of speaking have increased significantly. Today they like you, tomorrow they kill you, the gap is so big that it can generate electricity, and you have nowhere to hide. - Bai Yansong, “Bai Shuo”

77.多年前有一位中国的文化人，离开了祖国，认为自己从此将成为一棵没有根的树。几个月之后，他走进国外的一家图书馆，在馆藏的典籍中看到了《红楼梦》《水浒传》《三国演义》……在那个昏黄的充满旧书气息的空间里他号啕痛哭。他突然感到安全了，自由了。这不就是中国吗？自己没有离开它呀。——白岩松《白说》
77. Over 70 years ago, there was a Chinese intellectual who left his homeland, thinking that he would become a tree without roots. A few months later, he entered a foreign library and saw “Dream of the Red Chamber,” “Water Margin,” “Romance of the Three Kingdoms”… In that dim, old-book-scented space, he burst into tears. He suddenly felt safe and free. Isn’t this China? I haven’t left it after all. - Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

78.如果没有高考，你拼得过富二代吗？——白岩松《白说》
78. Without the college entrance examination, can you compete with the rich second generation? - Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

79.有一次我做志愿服务活动，有人问，你为什么愿意辛辛苦苦做这件事，搭上大量的时间和精力？我坦诚地告诉他，人到中年，最大的奢侈是平静，当我用大量时间做这方面的工作，我内心更容易平静。做完志愿服务，我可以心安理得地在家里听听音乐、喝喝茶，我觉得工夫没白搭。志愿者首先是为自己，而这种“为自己”，其实是心灵更高层面需求的提升。——白岩松《白说》
79. Once I participated in a volunteer service activity, someone asked, why are you willing to work so hard on this, spending a lot of time and energy? I honestly told him, as a middle-aged person, the greatest luxury is peace. When I spend a lot of time doing this work, my heart is more at ease. After volunteering, I can peacefully enjoy music and tea at home, and I feel that the effort is not in vain. Volunteers are primarily for themselves, and this “for oneself” is actually an elevation of the higher level of spiritual needs. - Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

80.每当我自己遇到挫折或者失败的时候，总会很好奇地想：老天爷又打算给我什么新的机会？——白岩松《白说》
80. Whenever I encounter setbacks or failures, I always curiously wonder: what new opportunities does God intend to give me? - Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

81.老祖宗说“君子和而不同”，这是中国同世界和谐相处的大智慧，大根基。——白岩松《白说》
81. The ancients said, “A gentleman harmonizes but does not conform,” which is the great wisdom and foundation for China to coexist harmoniously with the world. - Bai Yansong “Bai Shuo”

82.男人因为看着远方，才能吸引近旁的女人。如果你只看近旁的女人，女人就会看向远方了。——白岩松《白说》
