都有一座无线电台： 它能在多长时间里 接收到人间万物传 递来的美好、
hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite,
希望、欢乐、鼓舞和 力量信息，
so long as you are young.
你就会年轻 多长时间
其实像这样画出来的 美人
but the painter that made them.
，恐怕只表现了画 家本人的某种偏爱。
Not but I think a painter may make a better face than ever was;
画家不能通过这样 画出更好看的脸
but he must do it by a kind of felicity
美犹如盛夏的水果，是 容易腐烂而难保持的
and for the most part it makes a dissolute youth,
世上有许多美人 他们有过放荡的青春
and an age a little out of countenance;
却迎受着愧悔的晚年
but yet certainly again, if it light well,
因此，应该把美的 形貌与美的德行 结合起来
it maketh virtue shine, and vices blush.
这样，美才会发出夺目 的光辉。
02_Youth青春
Nobody grows merely by a number of years we grow older by deserting our ideas.
美不在颜色艳丽 而在面目端正，
and that of decent and gracious motion, more than that of favor.
又不尽在面目 端正而在举止 文雅合度
That is the best part of beauty, which a picture cannot express;
并将青春化为灰烬。
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders,
无论是60岁还是16岁 你需要保持永不衰竭 的好奇心，
the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next
When the aerials are down,
当天线倒塌时
and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism,
你的精神就被玩世不恭 和悲观厌世的冰雪所覆 盖，
then you've grown old, even at 20,
左右了我的一生: 对爱的渴望 对知识的探索
and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.
but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.
而热情之火的熄灭 则在心灵上刻下皱纹
Worry, fear,self- distrust bows the heart
忧虑、恐惧、缺乏 自信，会扭曲人的 灵魂
and turns the spirit back to dust.
you shall find never a good; and yet altogether do well.
看并不优美,但 作为整体却非常 动人。
If it be true that the principal part of beauty
虽然美之菁华 无疑在于
is in decent motion, certainly it is no marvel,
永不熄灭的孩提般 求知的渴望
and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart, and my heart,
和追求生活乐趣 的热情。 在你我的心底，
there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty,
A man cannot tell whether Apelles, or Albert Durer, were the more trifler;
whereof the one,
曾经有两位画家-阿皮 雷斯和艾伯特.丢勒 滑稽地认为，
would make a personage by geometrical proportions;
因为造物主似乎是吝啬 的，
than in labor to produce excellency.
他给了此就不再予 彼
And therefore they prove accomplished, but not of great spirit;
所以许多容颜俊秀的人 往往过于追求外在
and study rather behavior, than virtue.
你就已经衰老了， 即使你只是20岁；
but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism,
而你的天线巍然矗立着 的时候，凭着高昂的乐 观主义
there's hope you may die young at 80.
你就有希望在 80岁死去时仍然 韶华不逝。
最高的美是画家 所无法表现的
no,nor the first sight of the life.
因为它是难于 直观的
There is no excellent beauty,
没有哪种 美
that hath not some strangeness in the proportion.
能极致到不存在 例上的暇疵
of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.
和摈弃安逸的 那种冒险精神
This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20.
往往一个60岁的 老者比一个 20岁的青年更多一 点这种劲头
it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.
它是生命之源勃勃 生机的涌泉。
Youth means a temperamental predominance
青春意味着战胜 懦弱的
of courage over timidity,
那股大丈夫气概
and considering the youth, as to make up the comeliness.
而尽管有的年轻人具有 美貌，却由于缺乏完美 的修养而不配得到最好 的赞美。
Beauty is as summer fruits, which are easy to corrupt, and cannot last;
却端庄严肃而有美德者 是令人肃然起敬的
Neither is it almost seen,that very beau- tiful persons
外表美丽的人，
are otherwise of great virtue;
未必也具有内 在的美
as if nature were rather busy, not to err,
03_What I have Lived for我的人生追求
Three passions simple but overwhelmingly strong
有三种简单而无比强烈 的激情
have governed my life:the longing for love,the search for knowledge,
人老不仅仅是岁月流逝 所致,更主要的是懒惰 不思进取的结果。
Youth By Samuel Erman 青春 塞缪尔.俄尔曼
Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind,
青春不是生命的一段 时光
it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees,
创造它的常常是构思,
(as a musician that maketh an excellent air in music), and not by rule.
(正如为曲子营造的 氛围的音乐家)而不是 公式。
A man shall see faces, that if you examine them part by part,
按照几何比例，
the other, by taking the best parts out of divers faces, to make one excellent.
或者通过摄取不同人身 上最美的特点，可以用 画合成一张最完美的人 像
Such personages, I think, would please nobody,

01_Of Beauty论美
Virtue is fairer far than beauty
美德远胜于美貌
Of Beauty 论美 By Francis Bacon 弗兰西斯.培根
Virtue is like a rich stone,
美德好比宝石
不是指红润的脸颊、 红扑扑的嘴唇 和柔韧的双膝
it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination,
它是一种精神状态， 是指不懈的干劲、 丰富的想象力和滚烫 的情怀。
a vigor of the emotions,
它是生命春意 正浓时的活力。
Nobody grows merely by a number of years,
人老不仅仅是 岁月流逝所致
we grow old by deserting our ideas.
更主要的是懒惰、 不思进取的结果
Years may wrinkle the skin,
光阴可以在颜面 上留下印记
优雅的举止
though persons in years seem many times more amiable;
但有些老人更 显得很可爱
pulchrorum autumnus pulcher; for no youth can be comely but by pardon,
这印证了一句拉丁谚语 :"暮秋之色更美。"
best plain set; and surely virtue is best,in a body that is comely,
它在朴素背景的衬托下 反而更华丽。
though not of delicate features;
同样，一个打扮并 不华贵
and that hath rather dignity of presence, than beauty of aspect.
美丽而忽略了内心的美
But this holds not always:
但这也并非绝对

Edward the Fourth of England, Alcibiades of Athens, Ismael the Sophy of Persia,
英格兰的爱德华四世、 雅典的阿尔西巴 底斯、波斯的伊斯梅尔 等
were all high and great spirits;
既是大丈夫
and yet the most beautiful men of their times.
又是美男子
In beauty, that of favor, is more than that of color;
hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite,
希望、欢乐、鼓舞和 力量信息，
so long as you are young.
你就会年轻 多长时间
