Three O' Cat Is Still a Game/没有我世界照常运转
Lillian Bueno Mccue/莉莲·比诺·麦丘
What do I believe? What laws do I live by? There are so many answers - work, beauty, truth, love - and I hope I do live by them.
什么是我所信仰的?什么是我生活的准则?答案很多,比如工作、美丽、真理、爱心,但愿我能以它们为准则。
But in everyday things I live by the light of a supplementary set of laws. I'd better call them rules of thumb. Rules of thumb aren't very grand, but they do make the wheels go round.
然而,生活中的我还履行着另外一套附加的法则,即经验法则。这一法则虽然简单,但却能使事情顺利地进行下去。
My father and mother sent me to good schools, but the finest thing they did for my education was to have seven children. I was the oldest, and my brothers and sisters were my best teachers.
父母把我送到一所很好的学校学习,但养育了7个孩子,才是他们为我的教育做的最好的事。我是家中长女,而弟弟妹妹就是我最好的老师。
