查尔斯·狄更斯：《双城记》（1859） "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way."

“这是最好的时代，这是最坏的时代；这是智慧的时代，这是愚蠢的时代；这是信仰的时期，这是怀疑的时期；这是光明的季节，这是黑暗的季节；这是希望之

弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德：《了不起的盖茨比》（1925） "In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some

“我年纪还轻，阅历不深的时候，我父亲教导过我一句话，我至今还念念不忘。每逢你想要批评任何人的时候，他对我说，你就记住，这个世界上所有的人，并不是个个都有过你拥有的那些优越条件。”

Charlotte Bronte: Jane Eyre

夏洛蒂·勃朗特《简·爱》 There was no possibility of taking a

walk that day. We had been wandering, indeed, in the leafless shrubbery an

hour in the morning; but since dinner (Mrs. Reed, when there was no company, dined early) the cold winter wind had brought with it clouds so sombre, and a rain so penetrating, that further out-door exercise was now out of the question.

那天，出去散步是不可能了。其实，早上我们还在光秃秃的灌木林中溜达了一个小时，但从午饭时起(无客造访时，里德太太很早就用午饭)便刮起了冬日凛冽的寒风，随后阴云密布，大雨滂沱，室外的活动也就只能作罢了。

Emily Bronte: Wuthering Heights

艾米莉·勃朗特《呼啸山庄》

1801. - I have just returned from a visit to my landlord - the solitary neighbour that I shall be troubled with. This is certainly a beautiful country! In all England, I do not believe that I could have fixed on a situation so completely removed from the stir of society. A perfect misanthropist's heaven.

1801年，我刚刚拜访过我的房东回来——就是那个将要给我惹麻烦的孤独的邻居。这儿可真是一个美丽的乡间。在整个英格兰境内，我不相信我竟能找到这样一个能与尘世的喧嚣完全隔绝的地方，一个厌世者的理

想的天堂。

Marcel Proust: In Search of Lost Time

普鲁斯特《追忆似水年华》

For a long time I used to go to bed early. Sometimes, when I had put out my candle, my eyes would close so quickly that I had not even time to say "I'm going to sleep." And half an hour later the thought that it was

time to go to sleep would awaken me. 在很长一段时期里，我都是早早就躺下了。有时候，蜡烛才灭，我的眼皮儿随即合上，都来不及咕哝一句“我要睡着了”。半小时之后，我才想到应该睡觉。这一想，我反倒清醒过来。

Harriet Beecher Stowe: Uncle Tom's Cabin

斯托夫人《汤姆叔叔的小屋》

Late in the afternoon of a chilly day in February, two gentlemen were sitting alone over their wine, in a well-furnished dining parlor, in the

town of P -- -- , in Kentucky. There were no servants present, and the gentlemen, with chairs closely approaching, seemed to be discussing some subject with great earnestness.

2月的某一天，天气依然比较寒冷。黄昏时分，在P城一间布置典雅兼作餐厅的接待室里，两位绅士相对而坐，喝着酒。他们没有要仆人在旁边侍候。他们紧挨着坐着，好像在商量什么很重要的事情。

Garcia Marquez: One Hundred Years of Solitude

马尔克斯《百年孤独》

Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendía was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice. At that time Macondo was a village of twenty adobe houses, built on the bank of a river of clear water that ran along a bed of polished stones, which were white and enormous, like prehistoric eggs.

很多年以后，奥雷连诺上校站在行刑队面前，准会想起父亲带他去参观冰块的那个遥远的下午。当时，马孔多是个20户人家的村庄，一座座土房

都盖在河岸上，河水清澈，沿着遍布石头的河床流去，河里的石头光滑、洁白，活像史前的巨蛋。

结束语 No1《双城记》 查尔斯?狄更斯 我今日所做的事远比我往日 的所作所为更好，更好;我今日将享受

的安息远比我所知的一切更好，更好。

“It is a far, far better thing that I do,than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.” No2《百年孤独》 加西亚?马尔克斯

这手稿上所写的事情过去不曾，将来也永远不会重复，因为命中注定要一百年处于孤独的世家决不会有出现在世上的第二次机会。

Everything written on them was unrepeatable since time immemorial and forever more, because races condemned toone hundred years of solitude did not have a second opportunity on earth.

No3《茶花女》 小仲马

我不是邪恶的鼓吹者，但不论我在什么地方，只要听到高尚的人不幸哀鸣，我都会为他应声呼吁。 我再说一遍，玛格丽特的故事非常特殊，要是司空见惯，就没有必要写它了。

I am not the apostle of vice, but I wouldgladly be the echo of noble sorrow wherever I bear its voice in prayer.The story of Marguerite isan exception, I repeat; had it not been an exception, it would not have been worth the trouble of writing it.

No4《荆 棘鸟》 考琳?麦卡洛

鸟儿胸前带着棘刺，它遵循着一个不可改变的法则，她被不知其名的东西刺穿身体，被驱赶着，歌唱着死去。在那荆棘刺进的一瞬，她没有意识到死之将临。她只是唱着、唱着，直到生命耗尽，再也唱不出一个音符。但是，当我们把棘刺扎进

胸膛时，我们是知 道的。我们是明明白白的。然而，我们却依然要这样做。我们依然把棘刺扎进胸膛。

The bird with the thorn in itsbreast, it follows an immutable law; it is driven by it knows not what toimpale itself, and die singing. At the very instant the thorn enters there isno awareness in it of the dying to come; it simply sings and sings until thereis not the life left to utter another note. But we, when we put the thorns inour breasts, we know. We understand. And still we do it. Still we do it.

No5《呼 啸山庄》 艾米莉?勃朗特

我在那温和的天空下面，在这三块墓碑前留连!瞅着飞蛾在石南丛和兰铃花中飞舞，听着柔风在草间吹动，我纳闷有谁会想象得出在那平静的土地下面的长眠者竟会有并不平静的睡眠。

I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths

fluttering among the heath and harebells,listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how anyonecould ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth.

No6《浮士德》 歌德

万象皆俄顷，无非是映影;事凡不充分，至此开始发生;事凡无可名，至此始果行;永恒之女性，引导我 们飞升。

Everything transitory, is only approximation; what could not be achieved, here comes to pass; what no-onecould describe, is here accomplished; the Eternal Feminine, draws us afloat.

No7《追 风筝的人》 卡勒德?胡赛尼

我追。一个成年人在一群尖叫的孩子中奔跑。但我不在乎。我追，风拂过我的脸庞，我唇上挂着一个像潘杰希尔峡谷那样大大的微笑。

我追。

I ran. A grown man running with a swarm ofscreaming children. But I didn't care. I ran with the wind blowing in my face,and a smile as wide as the Valley of Panjsher on my lips.

I ran.

No8《复 活》 列夫?托尔斯泰

从这天晚上起，聂赫留朵夫开始了一种全新的生活，不仅因为他进入了一个新的生活境界，还因为从这时起他所遭遇的一切，对他来说都具有一种跟以前截然不同的意义.。至于他生活中的这个新阶段将怎样结束，将来自会明白。

From this night, Nekhludoff began a new life,not only because he has entered a new realm of life, but also for everything heencountered from then on. All the things had a different meaning to him thanbefore. And for the end of the new phasein his life, the future will see.

No9《安 娜?卡列尼娜》 列夫?托尔斯泰

我的理智仍然不可能明白我为什么祈祷，但是我照样还会祈祷;可现在我的生活，我 的整个生活，不管什么事情降到我的身上，随时随刻，不但再也不会像从前那样没有意义，并且具有一种不可争辩的善的意义，而我是有权力把这种意义贯注到我的生活中去的!

I shall still be as unable tounderstand with my reason why I pray, and I shall still go on praying; but my lifenow, my whole life apart from anything that can happen to me, every minute oftie is no more meaningless, as it was before, but it has the positive meaningof goodness, which I have the power to put into it!

No10《小 王子》 圣埃克苏佩里

如果这时，有个小孩子向你走来，如果他笑着，他有金黄色的头发，如果当你问他问题时他不回 答，你一定会猜得出他是谁。那就请你们帮个忙，不要让我这么忧伤：赶快写信告诉我，他又回来了??

Then, if a little man appears wholaughs, who has golden hair and who refuses to answer questions, you will knowwho he is. If this should happen, please comfort me. Send me word that he hascome back.

No11《了不起的盖茨比》 弗?司各特?菲茨杰拉德

盖茨比信奉这盏绿灯，这个一年年在我们眼前渐渐远去的极乐的未来。它从 前逃脱了我们的追求，不过那没关系——明天我们跑得更快一点，把胳臂伸得更远一点??总有一天?? 于是我们继续奋力前行，逆水行舟，被不断 地向后推，被推入到过去。

Gatsby believed in the green light,the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then,but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our armsfarther?. And one fine morning—So we beat on, boats against the current, borneback ceaselessly into the past. No12《飘》 玛格丽特?米切尔

我明天回塔拉再去想吧。那时我就经受得住一切了。明天，我会想出一个办法把他弄回来。毕竟，明天又是另外的一天呢。

“I’ll think of it all tomorrow, atTara. I can stand it then. Tomorrow, I’ll think of some way to get him back.After all, tomorrow is another day.” No13《基 督山伯爵》 大仲马

人类的一切智慧是包含在这四个字里面的：“等待”和“希望”!

All human wisdom is summed up in twowords? ?? `Wait and hope.'" No14《老人与海》 海明威

在大路另一头老人的窝棚里，他又睡着了。他依旧脸朝下躺着，孩子坐在他身边，守着他。 老人正梦见狮子。

Up the road, in his shack, the oldman was sleeping again. He was still sleeping on his face and the boy wassitting by him watching him. The old man was dreaming about the lions.

No15《生 命中不能承受之轻》 米兰?昆德拉

托马斯转动钥匙，扭开了吊灯。特丽莎看见两张床并排挨在一起，其中一张靠着一 张小桌和一盏灯。灯罩下的一只巨大的蝴蝶，被头顶的光吓得一惊，扑扑飞起，开始在夜晚的房间里盘旋。钢琴和小提琴的旋律依稀可闻，从楼下丝丝缕缕地升上来。

Tomas turned the key and switched onthe ceiling light. Tereza saw two beds pushed together, one of them flanked bya bedside table and lamp. Up out of the lampshade, startled by the overheadlight, flew a large nocturnal butterfly that began circling the room. Thestrains of the piano and violin rose up weakly from below.

No16《悲 惨世界》 维克多?雨果

他安息了。尽管命运多舛， 他仍偷生。失去了他的天使他就丧生; 事情是自然而然地发 生， 就如同夜幕降临，白日西沉。

He sleeps. Although his fate was very strange, he lived. He died when he had no longer his angel. The thing came to pass simply,of itself, asthe night comes when day is gone.

No17 《在 路上》 杰克?凯鲁亚克

除了无可奈何地走向衰老，没有人知道前面将会发生什 么，没有人，我想念狄恩?莫里亚蒂，我甚至想念我们从未找到的老狄恩?莫里亚蒂。我想念狄恩?莫里亚蒂。

Nobody knows what's going to happen to anybody besidesthe forlorn rags of growing old, I think of Dean Moriarty, I even think of OldDean Moriarty the father we never found, I think of Dean Moriarty.

No18《汤 姆叔叔的小屋》 斯托夫人

朋友们，我在他的坟墓前向上帝保证：我不会再让家里有一个黑奴，我会想尽办法使奴隶们 获得自由，没有人会由于我的意图而离妻别子，飘零异地，像汤姆那样客死他乡。所以当你们激情欢悦的时候，不要忘了汤姆，因为这一切都归功于他那善良的心啊。请照顾他的妻儿来报答他的深情厚谊吧。当你们看到汤姆叔叔的小屋时，要把它看成一块纪念碑，纪念他诚信、忠厚、笃信基督的精神。希望他的精神指引你们 去努力、沿循着他的步伐前进。

"It was on his grave, my friends, that I resolved, before God, that I would never own another slave,while it was possible to free him; that nobody, through me, should ever run therisk of being parted from home and friends, and dying on a lonely plantation,as he died. So, when you rejoice in your freedom, think that you owe it to that good old soul, and pay it back in kindness to his wife and children. Think of your freedom, every time you see UNCLE TOM'S CABIN; and let it be a memorial toput you all in mind to follow in his steps, and be honest and faithful andChristian as he was." No19《洛 丽塔》 纳博科夫

多么灿烂的日子。洛丽塔!

And this is the only immortality youand I may share, my Lolita. No20《一 个陌生女人的来信》 茨威格

他隐约想起了那个看不见的女人，她飘浮不定，然而热烈奔放，犹如远方传来的一阵乐 声。

Something welled up within him; andthe thought of the dead woman stirred in his mind, bodiless and passionate, like the sound of distant music. No21《巴 黎圣母院》 维克多?雨果

可以断定，这具尸骨生前那个人是自己来到这里，并且死在这儿的. 人们要将他从他所搂抱的那具骨骼分开来时，他刹时化为了尘土.

He must, therefore, have come ofhimself and died there. When they attempted to detach thisskeleton from the one it was embracing, it fell to dust.

No23《麦 田里的守望者》 塞林格

我只知道我很想念我所谈到的每一个人。甚至老斯特拉德莱塔和阿克莱，比方说。我觉得我甚至也想念那个混帐毛里斯哩。说来好笑。你千万别跟任何人谈任何事情。你只要一谈起，就会想念起每一个人来。

About all I know is, I sort of misseverybody I told about. Even old Stradlater and Ackley, for instance. I think Ieven miss that goddam Maurice. It's funny. Don't ever tell anybody anything. Ifyou do, you start missing everybody.

No24《唐? 吉诃德》 塞万提斯

由于我这本关于唐吉诃德的真实故事，骑士小说将日趋衰落，并且最终将彻底消亡。再见。

And I shall remain satisfied, and proud to have been the first who has ever enjoyed the fruit of his writings as fully as he could desire; for my desire has been no other than to deliver over to the detestation of mankind the false and foolish tales of the books of chivalry, which, thanks to that of my true Don Quixote, are even now tottering, and doubtless doomed to fall for ever. Farewell.”

No25《瓦 尔登湖》 亨利?梭罗

使我们失去视觉的那种光明，对于我们是黑暗。只有我们睁开眼睛醒过来的那一天，天才亮了。天亮的日子多着呢。太阳不过是一个晓星。

The light which puts out our eyes isdarkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day todawn. The sun is but a morning star.
