人生(life)
我们曾如此渴望命运的波澜,到最后才发现,人生最曼妙的风景,竟是内心的淡定与从容。我们曾如此期盼外界的认可,到最后才知道,世界是自己的,与他人毫无关系。
——杨绛《一百岁感言》{oscarwilde的名言}.
如要锻炼一个能做大事的人,必定要叫他吃苦受累,百不称心,才能养成坚忍的性格。 一个人经过不同程度的锻炼,就获得不同程度的修养,不同程度的效益。好比香料,捣得愈碎, 磨得愈细,香得愈浓烈。 少年贪玩,青年迷恋爱情,壮年汲汲于成名成家,暮年自安于自欺欺人。人寿几何,顽铁能炼成的精金,能有多少?
惟有身处卑微的人,最有机缘看到世态人情的真相。一个人不想攀高就不怕下跌,也不用倾轧排挤,可以保其天真,成其自然,潜心一志完成自己能做的事。 我是一位老人,净说些老话。对于时代,我是落伍者,没有什么良言贡献给现代婚姻。只是在物质至上的时代潮流下,想提
醒年轻的朋友,男女结合最最重要的是感情,双方互相理解的程度,理解深才能互相欣赏、吸引、支持和鼓励,两情相悦。门当户对及其他,并不重要。
——杨绛
Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
人生的目的不在于寻找自己,而在于创造自己。
—— 萧伯纳 George Bernard Shaw ,爱尔兰剧作家
永远做最好的自己,而非第二好的别人。
Always be a first rate version of yourself and not a second rate version of someone else.

这是你的世界、这是你的位置。尽情做你想做的事,过着你想要过的生活。
It’s your place in the world; it’s your life. Go on and do all you can
with it, and make it the life you want to live.
—— 梅·杰米森 Mae Jemison,美国第一位黑人女性航天员
人生就是不断的尝试,尝试越多、做得越好。
All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.
——拉尔夫.沃尔多.埃默森 Ralph Emerson,美国文学家
成功的人生是理解和追求自己的道路,而不是追寻别人的梦想。
A successful life is one that is lived through understanding and pursuing one's own path, not chasing after the dreams of others. ——朱津宁 Chin Ning Chu,美籍华裔研究学者、企业家
The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly - that is what each of us is here for. Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) 爱尔兰作家、诗人、剧作家奥斯卡·王尔德

Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past and present are certain to miss the future.

名家资料英文介绍:奥斯卡·王尔德 Oscar Wilde
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), Irish poet and dramatist whose reputation rests on his comic masterpieces Lady Windermere's Fan温夫人的扇子 (1892) and The Importance of Being Earnest认真的重要性(1895). Among Wilde's other best-known works are his only novel The Picture of Dorian Gray多利安•格雷的画像 (1891) and his fairy tales especially "The Happy Prince."
Wilde was born on October 16, 1854 in Dublin to unconventional parents - his mother Lady Jane Francesca Wilde (1820-96), was a poet and journalist. His father was Sir William Wilde, an Irish antiquarian古物研究者,收集古物者(antiques), gifted writer, and specialist in diseases of the eye and ear. Wilde studied at Portora Royal School, Enniskillen, County Fermanagh (1864-71), Trinity College, Dublin (1871-74) and Magdalen College, Oxford (1874-78).
In 1878 Wilde received his B.A. and in the same year he moved to London. His lifestyle and humorous wit soon made him the spokesman for
Aestheticism(唯美主义), the late 19th century movement in England that advocated art for art's sake. He worked as art reviewer (1881), lectured in the United States and Canada (1882), and lived in Paris (1883). Between the years 1883 and 1884 he lectured in Britain. From the mid-1880s he was a regular contributor for Pall Mall Gazette and Dramatic View. In 1884 Wilde married Constance Lloyd (died 1898), and to support his family Wilde edited in 1887-89 Woman's World. In 1888 he published The Happy Prince and Other Tales, fairy-stories written for his two sons. Wilde's marriage ended in 1893. He had met a few years earlier Lord Alfred Douglas, an athlete and a poet, who became both the love of the author's life and his downfall.
Wilde made his reputation in the theatre world between the years 1892 and 1895 with a series of highly popular plays. Lady Windermere's Fan (1892) dealt with a blackmailing divorce driven to self-sacrifice by maternal love. In A Woman of No
