[Quote]一週心得化作翻譯創作

[經濟時事]:
"There is no finer investment for any community than putting milk into babies."--Winston Churchill
"對一個社會來說, 沒有比用奶餵飽嬰孩更棒的投資了!"--邱吉爾
Precondition前提是: No Chinese milk
所以我們加幾句註解:"Putting Chinese milk into anything is no investment.""Feeding tainted milk will be investment of suicide." XD

[人事物]:
1."Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatic achievement."--Edward Dahlburg
"一切成就終究會隨我們死去, 而這也是最值得慶幸的事."(這句我翻的有點扭曲原意但不知道問題在哪...)
因此努力並不代表吃虧
不過 2.Happiness lies in the contentment of what we have.
快樂不在於你擁有很多, 而是你想要的不多
別怕自己摔得重而不放敢去飛,
3.畢竟"There are people out there hurt more than you do."很多人比你傷的重!

[歷史未來]:
"Over time, the more we bring China to the world,
the more the world will bring freedom to China."--Bill Clinton
"我們越協助中國融入世界, 隨著時間推移, 世界也越將自由帶入中國."--克林頓

說來ironic, 美國自由嗎?民主嗎? 民主有意義嗎?人民成熟道知道自己需要什麼嗎?不如開明專制吧?
"I don't believe that the public knows what it wants;it is the conclusion that I have drawn from my career."--Charlie Chaplin
"我不認為大眾知道自己要什麼.這是我自己經驗中獲得的結論."--查理.卓別林

[音樂藝術]:
"Music has charms to soothe a savage beast." William Congreve
"音樂具有安撫狂獸的魔力"
哈不過換句話說...
"The reward of art is not fame but intoxication ; that's why so many bad artists are unable to give it up."--Cyril Connoly
"藝術創作帶來的酬償不是名聲, 而是耽溺其中的快感; 因此才有那麼多爛藝術家無法自拔..."
