標題[英中] HAPPY (無題)
時間Sun Apr 29 02:34:06 2012
The only happiness a brave man ever troubled himself with asking much about
was, happiness enough to get his work done. It is, after all, the one
unhappiness of a man, that he cannot work ; that he cannot get his destiny as
a man fulfilled. CARLYLE.
[v1]
勇敢的人總會不厭其煩地不斷自問：最幸福的是什麼—－－
那就是幸福地完成自己的工作。
畢竟，人的不幸是無法工作，無法完成個人終生所身負的使命。-CARLYLE.
[v2]
勇者總是盡可能自我挑戰、頻頻自問何為唯一的幸福
－－－那就是足以完成自己工作的幸福。
畢竟，人無法工作、完成個人終生所肩負的使命，這是一種不幸。
