I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.
我爱你,不是因为你是一个怎样的人,而是因为我喜欢与你在一起时的感觉。
No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.
没有人值得你流泪,值得让你这么做的人不会让你哭泣。
The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.
失去某人,最糟糕的莫过于,他近在身旁,却犹如远在天边。
Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
纵然伤心,也不要愁眉不展,因为你不知是谁会爱上你的笑容。
To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
对于世界而言,你是一个人;但是对于某个人,你是他的整个世界。
Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.
不要为那些不愿在你身上花费时间的人而浪费你的时间。
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
爱你的人如果没有按你所希望的方式来爱你,那并不代表他们没有全心全意地爱你。
Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
不要着急,最好的总会在最不经意的时候出现。
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.
在遇到梦中人之前,上天也许会安排我们先遇到别的人;在我们终于遇见心仪的人时,便应当心存感激。
Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
不要因为结束而哭泣,微笑吧,为你的曾经拥有。
没有限定题材吗……
好吧,如果喜欢短诗,推荐泰戈尔的《飞鸟集》,原文是英文,有很好的中文译本,来自郑振铎先生,泰戈尔的其他诗集也很不错。
举个耳熟能详例子:Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.
使生如夏花之绚烂,死如秋叶之静美。
如果喜欢爱情诗,推荐《莎士比亚十四行诗集》,很美,还可以找到众多英国演员朗诵的有声版专辑“when love speaks”,不过使用古英语写的,阅读的难度相对较大。
同样举一个例子吧:SonNET XVIII
SHALL I COMPARE THEE TO A SUMMER'S DAY
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
这个的译本也很多,相对质量较高的有梁宗岱先生,屠岸先生,梁实秋先生和辜正坤先生的版本。
放一个梁实秋版的吧:
我可能把你和夏天相比拟?
你比夏天更可爱更温和:
狂风会把五月的花苞吹落地
夏天也嫌太短促,匆匆而过。
有时太阳照得太热,
常常又遮暗他的金色的脸;
美的事物总不免要凋落,
偶然的,或是随自然变化而流转。
但是你的永恒之夏不会褪色,
你不会失去你的俊美的仪容;
死神不能夸说你在它的阴影里面走着,
如果你在这不朽的诗句里获得了永生;
只要人们能呼吸,眼睛能看东西,
此诗就会不朽,使你永久生存下去。
特别推荐爱尔兰诗人叶芝和美国诗人爱伦·坡
前者的when you are old 小巧玲珑,情致缠绵,深挚动人
后者我最爱ANNABEL LEE 一唱三叹,凄艳悱恻
关于英美诗歌,推荐一本入门参考书:刘守兰编著的《英美名诗解读》 上海外语教育出版社出版

If I could save time in a bottle the first thing that I'd like to do is to save every day until eternity passes away just to spend them with you if I could make days last forever if words could make wishes come true I'd save every day like a treasure and then again I would spend them with you 如果我能把时间存入一个瓶子, 我要作的第一件事就是, 把每一天都存下来直到永恒, 再和你一起慢慢度过。
如果我能把时间化作永恒, 如果我的愿望能一一成真, 我会把每天都像宝贝一样存起来, 再和你一起慢慢度过。 Thank you for comforting me when I'm sad Loving me when I'm mad Picking me up when I'm down Thank you for being my friend and being around Teaching me the meaning of love Encouraging me when I need a shove But most of all thank you for Loving me for who I am 感谢你在我伤心时安慰我, 当我生气时你护著我, 当我沮丧时你拉拔我。
感谢你作我的朋友并且在我身旁, 教导我爱的意义是什么, 当我需要动力时你鼓励我。 但我最想感谢你的是, 爱上像我这样的一个人。

ALWAYS HAVE A DREAM
Forget about the days when it's been cloudy.
But don't forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you have been defeated.
But don't forget the victories you have won.
Forget about the misfortunes you have encountered.
But don't forget the times your luck has turned.
Forget about the days when you have been lonely.
But don't forget the friendly smiles you have seen.
Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right.
But don't forget to always have a dream.
忘掉你失意的日子,但不要忘记黄金的时光。
忘掉你的一次次失败,但不要忘记你夺取的胜利。
忘掉你遭遇的不幸,但不要忘记你的时来运转。
忘掉你的孤独日子,但不要忘记你得到的友善微笑。
忘掉你没有得以顺利实施的计划,但不要放弃你的梦想。

时间的价值

要想知道一个月的价值,那就去问生了早产儿的母亲。
要想知道一周的价值,那就去问周报的编辑。
要想知道一小时的价值,那就去问等待见面的恋人。
要想知道一分钟的价值,那就去问误了火车、汽车或者飞机的人。
要想知道一秒钟的价值,那就去问大难不死的人。
要想知道一毫秒的价值,那就去问奥运会获得银牌的人。
时间不等人,你拥有的每一刻都要珍惜。
The importance of Confidence
Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one can achieve anything when faced with hardships. This truth seems to be self-evident. In reality, however, we do see a lot of people who always complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true. But for many others, this only shows that they have lost heart. Why do some people often feel frustrated even though they are capable of doing something? In the first place, these people don't have a correct estimate of themselves. Secondly, there is another possibility that they exaggerate the difficulties.
