毒鸡汤祖师爷王尔德语录
关键字: 王尔德名人名言鸡汤毒鸡汤【观察者网 肖晟仕/编译】最近掀起了一阵反鸡汤风潮,比如“为了不沦落回万达当太子爷,王思聪多努力地创业”,还有植入了毒鸡汤的饮料瓶、以毒鸡汤为卖点的“丧茶”等。其实,早在19世纪,就有一位毒鸡汤达人,他就是爱尔兰作家、诗人、剧作家,英国唯美主义艺术运动的倡导者奥斯卡·王尔德,他留下的毒鸡汤语录,至今听来仍振聋发聩,下面就让我们欣赏一下吧。
他这样形容爱情与婚姻:
1. When a love comes to an end, weaklings cry, efficient ones instantly find another love and wise already had one in reserve.
当爱情结束的时候,新手哭个不停,有经验的马上寻找下一个目标,老司机已经换好备胎上路了。
2. What is the chief cause of divorce? Marriage.
离婚的主要原因是什么?结婚。
3. When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving one's self, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what would calls a romance.
浪漫的定义:爱情由自我欺骗开始,以欺骗他人结束。
4. I like men who have a future and women who have a past.
我喜欢有前途的男人,以及有过去的女人。
5. Hatred is blind, as well as love.
恨是盲目的,爱也一样。
6. The happiness of a married man depends on the people he has not married.
已婚男人的幸福,源自除妻子以外的人。
7. Men marry because they are tired; women because they are curious; both are disappointed.
男人结婚是因为累了;女人结婚是因为好奇;最终他们都会失望。
8. The advantage of the emotions is that they lead us astray, and the advantage of science is that it is not emotional.
情感的好处是让人迷失,科学的好处是它与情感无关。
9. Women are never disarmed by compliments. Men always are. That is the difference between the sexes.
奉承一个女人不会让她放下戒心,但吹捧一个男人会令他缴械投降。这就是性别差异。
对于人性,他的话语可以说是一针见血了:
1. The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.
世人无比宽容大度,他们可以原谅一切,除了天才。
2. Only the shallow know themselves.
只有肤浅的人才了解自己。
3. The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it... I can resist everything but temptation.
摆脱诱惑的唯一办法是臣服于它。我能抗拒一切——除了诱惑。
4. Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when he is called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason.
人是理性的动物,但要他按照理性行动时,往往又会发脾气。
5. One can always be kind to people one cares nothing about.
人总能善待那些他们毫不在意的人。
6. No man is rich enough to buy back his own past.
一个人再富有,也无法赎回自己的过去。
7. Discontent is the first step in the progress of a man or a nation.
无论对于个人还是民族而言,不满都是迈向进步的第一步。
8. Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future.
圣徒皆有其过往,罪人亦有其未来。
9. What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
所谓玩世不恭者,就是那些对价格一清二楚,却对价值一无所知的人。
10. It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.
使我们获得宽恕的是忏悔,而不是牧师。
11. The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.
世上只有一件事比遭人议论更糟糕,那就是没人议论你。
12. Looking good and dressing well is a necessity. Having a purpose in life is not.
人必须把自己打扮得人模狗样,至于有没有生活目标没那么重要。
13. The heart was made to be broken.
心,就是用来碎的。
对于艺术,他有自己独到的见解:
1. No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did he would cease to be an artist.
伟大的艺术家向来看不到事物的本来面目。如果他看到了,就不再是艺术家了。
2. Life imitates art far more than art imitates Life.
艺术源于生活,但生活更源于艺术。
3. All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling.
用真情实感写就的诗篇,都比较糟糕。
4. We Irish are too poetical to be poets; we are a nation of brilliant failures, but we are the greatest talkers since the Greeks.
我们爱尔兰人太有诗意以致无法成为诗人;我们民族都是些才华洋溢的失败者,自希腊人以来,空谈属我们第一。
5. A poet can survive everything but a misprint.
再潦倒的生活也压不垮诗人,但印刷错误会要他的命。
6. I was working on the proof of one of my poems all morning, and took out a comma. In the afternoon I put it back again.
我在校对自己的诗时,花一整个上午删掉了一个逗号,下午我又把它加回去了。
他不仅仅只是一位毒鸡汤专家,偶尔也会洒洒鸡汤:
1. A true friend stabs you in the front.
真朋友才会当面戳你的痛处。
2. What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise.
看似痛苦的磨炼,往往才是真正的祝福。
3. We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
我们都在活在阴沟里,但仍有人仰望星空。
4. Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.
寻常的财富会被偷,真正的财富谁也拿不走。它在你的灵魂里,无限珍贵。
