《瓦尔登湖》by梭罗

使我们视而不见的光亮，对于我们就是黑暗。当我们清醒时，曙光才会破晓。来日方长，太阳只是颗启明星。

The light which puts out①put out熄灭；伸出；出版；使不方便，打扰our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

最终，你坠入沉眠。当你再度醒来，一切都未曾改变。你已融入新的世界。

《基督山伯爵》by大仲马

伯爵刚才不是告诉我们了吗？人类的全部智慧就包含在这五个字里面：等待和希望。

Has not the count just told us that all human wisdom is summed up in two words?'Wait and hope.'

《荆棘鸟》by考琳·麦卡洛

但是，把荆棘刺入胸膛的那一刻，我们是知道的，明明白白。然而，我们依然要这么做，把荆棘刺入胸膛，彻彻底底。

But we, when we put the thorns④thorn 英 [θɔːn] 美 [θɔrn] n. 刺；[植 ] 荆棘in our breasts, we know. We understand. And still we do it. Still we do it.

《双城记》by查尔斯·狄更斯

我今日所做的事远比我往日的所作所为更好，更好；

我今日将享受的安息远比我所知的一切更好，更好。

It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done;

It is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.

《飘》by玛格丽特·米切尔

毕竟，明天又是另外的一天呢。

After all, tomorrow is another day.

《老人与海》by海明威

在大路另一头老人的窝棚里，他又睡着了。他依旧脸朝下躺着，孩子坐在他身边，守着他。
