A cobbler passed his time in singing from morning till night; it was wonderful to see, wonderful to hear him; he was more contented in making shoes, than was any of the seven sages. His neighbor, on the contrary, who was rolling in wealth, sung but little, and slept less. He was a banker; when by chance he fell into a doze at day-break, the cobbler awoke him with his song. The banker complained sadly that Providence had not made sleep a saleable commodity, like edibles or drinkables. Having at length sent for the songster, he said to him, "How much a year do you earn, Master Gregory?"
"How much a year, sir?" said the merry cobbler laughing, "I never reckon in that way, living as I do from one day to another; somehow I manage to reach the end of the year; each day brings its meal."
"Well then! How much a day do you earn, my friend?"
"Sometimes more, sometimes less; but the worst of it is, -and, without that our earnings would be very tolerable, -a number of days occur in the year on which we are forbidden to work; and the curate, moreover, is constantly adding some new saint to the list."
The banker, laughing at his simplicity, said, "In the future I shall place you above want. Take this hundred crowns, preserve them carefully, and make use of them in time of need."
The cobbler fancied he beheld all the wealth which the earth had proced in the past century for the use of mankind. Returning home, he buried his money and his happiness at the same time. No more singing; he lost his voice, the moment he acquired that which is the source of so much grief. Sleep quitted his dwelling; and cares, suspicions, and false alarms took its place. All day, his eye wandered in the direction of the treasure; and at night, if some stray cat made a noise, the cat was robbing him. At length the poor man ran to the house of his rich neighbor; "Give me back," said he, "sleep and my voice, and take your hundred crowns."
一個皮匠從早到晚在唱歌中度過。 無論見到他本人或聽見他的歌聲都使人覺得很愉快。 他對於製鞋工作比當上了希臘七聖還要滿足。 與此相反,他的鄰居是個銀行家,擁有萬貫家財,卻很少唱歌,晚上也睡得不好。 他偶爾在黎明時分迷迷糊糊剛入睡,皮匠的歌聲便把他吵醒了。 銀行家鬱郁寡歡地抱怨上帝沒有把睡眠也製成一種像食品或飲料那樣可以買賣的商品。 後來,銀行家就叫人把這位歌手請來,問道:「格列戈里師傅,你一年賺多少錢?」
「先生,你問我一年賺多少錢嗎?」快樂的皮匠笑道: 「我從來不算這筆帳,我是一天一天地過日子,總而言之堅持到年底,每天掙足三餐。」
「啊,朋友,那麼你一天賺多少錢呢?」
「有時多一點,有時少一點; 不過最糟糕的是一年中總有些日子不準我們做買賣,否則我們的收入也還算不錯的。 而牧師又常常在聖徒名單上添新名字。」
銀行家被皮匠的直率逗笑了,他說:「我要你從今以後不愁沒錢用。 這一百枚錢你拿去,小心放好,需要時拿來用吧。」
皮匠覺得自己好像看到了過去幾百年來大地為人類所需而製造出來的全部財富。 他回到家中,埋藏好硬幣,同時也埋藏了他的歡樂。 他不再唱歌了;從他得到這種痛苦的根源那一刻起,他的嗓子就啞了。 睡眠與他分了手;取而代之的卻是擔心、懷疑、虛驚。 白天,他的目光盡朝埋藏硬幣的方向望; 夜間,如果有隻迷途的貓弄出一點聲響,他就以為是有人來搶他的錢。 最後,這個可憐的皮匠跑到他那富有的鄰居家裡說:「把你的一百枚錢拿回去,還我的睡眠和歌聲來。」

A wolf was almost dead with hunger. A house-dog saw him, and asked, "Friend, your irregular life will soon ruin you.
"Why don't you work steadily as I do, and get your food regularly?"
"I would have no objection," said the wolf, "if I could only get a place." "I will help you," said the dog. "Come with me to my master, and you shall share my work."
So the wolf and the dog went to the town together.
On the way the wolf saw that there was no hair around the dog's neck.
He felt quite surprised, and asked him why it was like that?
"Oh, it is nothing," said the dog. "Every night my master puts a collar around my neck and chains me up. You will soon get used to it."
"Is that the only reason?" said the wolf. "Then good-bye to you, my friend. I would rather be free."
一隻狼快要餓死了,一隻狗看見後問他:「你現在的無規律的生活一定會毀掉你,為什麼不像我一樣穩定地幹活並有規律地獲得食物呢?」
狼說:「如果我有個地方住,我沒有意見。」狗回答說:「跟我到主人那裡去,我們一起工作。」於是狼和狗一起回到了村子。
在路上,狼注意到狗的脖子上有一圈沒有毛,他很奇怪地問為什麼會那樣。
「噢,沒有什麼,」狗說,「我的主人每天晚上都用一條鐵鏈子拴住我,你很快就會習慣的。」「就是因為這個原因嗎?」狼說道,「那麼,再見了,我的朋友,我寧願選擇自由。」

YOUTH青春
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
青春不是年華,而是心境;青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志,恢宏的想像,炙熱的戀情;青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春氣貫長虹,勇銳蓋過怯弱,進取壓倒苟安。如此銳氣,二十後生而有之,六旬男子則更多見。年歲有加,並非垂老,理想丟棄,方墮暮年。
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to st.
歲月悠悠,衰微只及肌膚;熱忱拋卻,頹廢必致靈魂。憂煩,惶恐,喪失自信,定使心靈扭曲,意氣如灰。
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being』s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing child like appetite for what』s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.
無論年屆花甲,擬或二八芳齡,心中皆有生命之歡樂,奇跡之誘惑,孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天線,只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號,你就青春永駐,風華常存。
When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you』ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there』s hope you may die young at 80.
一旦天線下降,銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋,玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生,即使年方二十,實已垂垂老矣;然則只要樹起天線,捕捉樂觀信號,你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時仍覺年輕。
