True Nobility

 

    In a calm sea every man is a pilot.

    But all sunshine without shade,all pleasure without pain,is not life at all.

    Men come closest to their true selves in the sober moments of life,under the shadows of sorrow and loss.

 

    I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live more simply without.

    In an age of extravagance and waste,I wish i could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.

 

    There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man.

    The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.

 

    //True Nobility//

     -- from Ernest Hemingway

 

 

    开始在内心生活得更严肃的人，也会在外表上开始生活得更素朴。

    在人类的内心深处，真正需要的东西是非常之渺少的。

    优于别人，并不高贵。真正的高贵，应该是优于过去的自己。
