11.Someone will always be better looking. Someone will always be smarter. Someone will always be more charismatic. But they will never be you – with your exact ideas, knowledge and skills.
11.總會(huì)有人比你漂亮，總會(huì)有人比你聰明，總會(huì)有人比你有魅力。這些人都不是你，他們不會(huì)擁有你所擁有的思想、知識(shí)和技能。

12.Making progress involves risk. Period. You can’t make it to second base with your foot on first.
12.前進(jìn)中總會(huì)有風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。沒(méi)什么好多說(shuō)的。你總不可能腳還踩在一壘上就想跑到二壘吧。

（小編注：period在這里是標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào)句號(hào)的意思，通常在句末出現(xiàn)，表示就到這里，沒(méi)什么可說(shuō)的了，詳情請(qǐng)見(jiàn)【美劇日?？谡Z(yǔ)】你會(huì)用“標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào)”說(shuō)話嗎？ 一壘、二壘都是棒球術(shù)語(yǔ)，棒球比賽中有四個(gè)壘，從擊球點(diǎn)（本壘）起反時(shí)鐘方向跑，依次是一壘、二壘（在本壘對(duì)角）和三壘。一般擊球后成功達(dá)到一壘是為“安打”，如果球擊得很遠(yuǎn)，球員可以冒險(xiǎn)沖向二壘。）

13.Every morning you are faced with two choices: You can aimlessly stumble through the day not knowing what’s going to happen and simply react to events at a moment’s notice, or you can go through the day directing your own life and making your own decisions and destiny.
13.每天早上你都有兩個(gè)選擇：一是虛度光陰、碌碌無(wú)為，不知道一天會(huì)發(fā)生什么事，只是等到事情迫在眉睫了才勉強(qiáng)應(yīng)對(duì)。或者你可以自己掌控一切，包括你的生活、決定和命運(yùn)。

14.Everyone makes mistakes. If you can’t forgive others, don’t expect others to forgive you. To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover the prisoner was you.
14.人非圣賢，孰能無(wú)過(guò)。你不原諒別人，又怎么能希望別人會(huì)原諒你。寬恕就是釋放囚犯，這個(gè)囚犯不是別人，正是你自己。

15.It’s okay to fall apart for a little while. You don’t always have to pretend to be strong, and there is no need to constantly prove that everything is going well. You shouldn’t be concerned with what other people are thinking either – cry if you need to – it’s healthy to shed your tears. The sooner you do, the sooner you will be able to smile again.
15.偶爾崩潰一小下是可以的，你不必總是假裝堅(jiān)強(qiáng)，證明一切都運(yùn)行正常。不需要去理會(huì)別人的想法，想哭就哭，流淚對(duì)身體有好處。早點(diǎn)流淚，就能早點(diǎn)再次微笑。

16.We sometimes do things that are permanently foolish just because we are temporarily upset. A lot of heartache can be avoided if you learn to control your emotions.
16.有時(shí)候，我們因?yàn)橐粫r(shí)的失意而做出讓我們后悔終身的傻事。只要學(xué)會(huì)控制自己的情緒，很多讓我們心痛的事都是可以避免的。

17.Someone else doesn’t have to be wrong for you to be right. There are many roads to what’s right. You cannot judge others by your own past. They are living a different life than you. What might be good for one person may not be good for another. What might be bad for one person might change another person’s life for the better. You have to allow people to make their own mistakes and their own decisions.
17.你是對(duì)的，別人不一定就是錯(cuò)的。對(duì)有很多種不同方式，你不能通過(guò)自己的經(jīng)歷來(lái)判斷別人。每個(gè)人的生活都不一樣。對(duì)這個(gè)人是好事，對(duì)那個(gè)人可能不是。對(duì)某個(gè)人來(lái)說(shuō)是件壞事，對(duì)另一個(gè)人而言卻是好事。你要允許別人犯錯(cuò)，也要允許別人自己做決定。

18.Nobody is perfect, and nobody deserves to be perfect. Nobody has it easy. You never know what people are going through. Every one of us has issues. So don’t belittle yourself or anyone else. Everybody is fighting their own unique war.
18.人無(wú)完人，人無(wú)須成完人。大家都過(guò)得不容易，你永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)知道別人都在經(jīng)歷著些什么。每個(gè)人都有自己的事情要做。所以，別輕視自己，也別輕視他人。每個(gè)人都在打自己的仗。

19.A smile doesn’t always mean a person is happy. Sometimes it simply means they are strong enough to face their problems.
19.微笑不代表快樂(lè)，有時(shí)，微笑僅僅說(shuō)明我們足夠強(qiáng)大去面對(duì)問(wèn)題。

20.The happiest people I know keep an open mind to new ideas and ventures, use their leisure time as a means of mental development, and love good music, good books, good pictures, good company and good conversation. And oftentimes they are also the cause of happiness in others – me in particular.
20.我認(rèn)識(shí)的最快樂(lè)的人，他們思想開(kāi)放，勇于接受新事物、新挑戰(zhàn)，他們會(huì)利用業(yè)余時(shí)間來(lái)提升心智，喜歡悠揚(yáng)的音樂(lè)、智慧的書(shū)籍、漂亮的畫(huà)卷、優(yōu)秀的伙伴和睿智的談話。通常，他們也是別人快樂(lè)的來(lái)源，對(duì)我尤其如此。
