●To be or not to be, that is a question.
生存还是毁灭,这是一个问题。
●Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
宁为聪明的渔夫,不做愚蠢的才子。
●A light heart lives long. 豁达者长寿
●Words , words, only words, no matter from the heart.
空话,空话,只有空话,没一点是真。
● A little more than kin, and less than kind.
超乎寻常的亲族,漠不相关的路人。——《哈姆雷特》
● Nothing e of nothing.
一无所有只能换来一无所有。——《李尔王》
● Keep up your bright swords, for the dew will rust them.
收起你们明晃晃的剑,它们沾了露水会生锈的。——《奥赛罗》
