同一个滑铁卢之战,具体情节绝无二致,而英国人看来是“胜利”;法国人看来是“失败”

同样,宇宙也如此,乐观主义者看作是胜利,悲观主义者看作是失败
What we say about reality thus depends on the perspective into which we throw it."

Here is one of my... one of my favorite poems by R.L. Sharpe:
这是我最喜欢的夏普的诗
Isn't it strange, how princes and kings, and clowns that caper in sawdust rings,
“是不是很奇怪,王子和国王,在木屑圈里跳来跳去的小丑
and common-people like you and me, are builders for eternity?
一如你我的凡人怎么会是永恒的打造者
scene

each is given a list of rules, a shapeless mass and a bag of tools;

人人都拿到了一份规则表,一大块不成形的东西,一袋工具
and each must fashion your life is flown, a stumbling block or a stepping stone.
在生命流逝之前,人人都必须雕出,一块绊脚石,或是一块垫脚石“
Very often what we get in the beginning is a large piece of stone. What do we do with it?
经常我们在开始得到的东西。是一大块石头,我们怎么办?
Do we create it into a beautiful "David"?
我们把它凿成漂亮的“大卫”
Chipping away the excess stone?
凿碎多余的石头
Or, is it a barrier to our success?
或者它只是我们通往成功的障碍
And very often it is up to us, as we co-create our reality.
通常这是由我们决定的,因为我们共创现实
The stone is there, we are not responsible for it; but what we do with it, we are responsible for.
石头就在那,我们不用负责;但我们用它做什么,我们要负责
