传道者感叹到：

“

著书立说没有止境

，却没发觉他已高度评价了作家这一职业。

的确 ，写作、旅行、积聚财富都是没有终结的。一个问题引发另外一个问题。我

们不断学习，

且永远达不到心中所渴望的那般学识渊博。

我们永远雕刻不出自 己

心仪的塑像。当发现一个新大陆

,

或 翻过一座山脉时，我们总会看到远方还有未

曾涉足的海洋与陆地。

宇宙浩渺，

总会有供我们勤奋努力的东西，

总会有供我们

探索的空间。

它不像卡莱尔的著作，

可以读 完。

即使在其一角，

在一个私人花园，

或一个农庄附近，

四季轮回，

天气瞬息万变，

< br>哪怕在那里生活了一辈子，

也总会

有让我们惊喜的事情。

making

books

there

is

no

end,

complained

the

Preacher;

not

how

highly

he

was

praising

letters

as

an

occupation.

There

is

no

end,

indeed,

to

making books or experiments, or to

travel, or to

gathering wealth. Problem

gives rise

to

problem.

We

may

study

for

ever,

and

we

are

never

as

learned

as

we

would.

We

have

never

made

a

statue

worthy

of

our

dreams.

And

when

we

have

discovered

a

continent, or crossed a chain of

mountains,

it

is only to

find another ocean or another

plain

upon

the

further

side.

In

the

infinite

universe

there

is

room

for

our

swiftest

diligence and to spare. It is not like the works of Carlyle, which can be read to an end.

Even

in a corner of

it,

in a private park, or

in the

neighbourhood of a single

hamlet,

the weather and the seasons keep so deftly changing that although we walk there for a

lifetime there will be always something new to startle and delight us.

婚姻的旅程

中文原文：

当你步入婚姻的殿堂，< /p>

你可能认为已经爬到了山顶，

剩下的只是悠闲地沿着平缓

的山坡下山。

然而，

这只是恋爱的结束，

婚姻的开始。

拥有一颗骄傲而又叛逆的

心，坠 入爱河与赢得爱情都是难事；但维持爱情也很重要，夫妻都应相敬如宾

,

互相关爱。当真爱起始于圣坛之时，夫妻之间便开始了一场智慧与慷慨的竞争，

一场为了一个不可能实现的理想而持续一生的奋斗。

不可能实现？啊，

< br>当然不可

能，因为他们不是一个人，而是两个呀。

参考译文：

Again,

when

you

have

married

your

wife,

you

would

think

you

were

got

upon

a

hilltop, and

might begin to

go downward by an easy slope.

But

you

have only ended

courting to begin

marriage. Falling

in

love and

winning

love are often difficult tasks

to

overbearing

and

rebellious

spirits;

but

to

keep

in

love

is

also

a

business

of

some

importance, to

which both

man and

wife

must bring kindness

and goodwill.

The

true

love

story

commences

at

the

altar,

when

there

lies

before

the

married

pair

a

most

beautiful

contest

of

wisdom

and

generosity

,

and

a

life-long

struggle

towards

an

unattainable

ideal.

Unattainable? Ay

, surely

unattainable,

from the

very

fact

that

they

are two instead of one.

中文原文：

正是因为不停地追求进取 ，

我们才感到生活幸福。
