他面色苍白,有月亮一样的脸庞,
也像月亮一样,有浅色的大雀斑。
我年轻时以为钱是世界上最重要的东西,
等到老了才知道……
还真是!!!
说这话的不是别人,正是英国著名唯美主义作家王尔德。
在短短46年的人生中,王尔德写出了众多日后闻名世界的作品:童话《快乐王子》《夜莺与玫瑰》,小说《道雷·格林的画像》,戏剧《莎乐美》……
在这些作品里,各种妙趣横生、逼格爆棚、毫无预兆被扎心的金句几乎比比皆是,王尔德堪称名副其实的“腐国毒舌代言人”。
I don't want to go to heaven. None of my friends are there.我年轻时以为金钱是世界上最重要的东西,等到老了才知道,原来真的是这样。When I was young, I used to think that money was the most important thing in life, now that I am old, I know it is.世界上只有一件事比被人议论更糟糕,那就是没人议论你。The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all.我喜欢活人甚于原则,而这世上最叫我喜欢的,就是无原则的、放荡不羁的人。I like persons better than principles, and I like persons with on principles better than anything else in the world.我一点都不浪漫。我还不算太老。还是把浪漫留给比我老的人吧。I am not at all romantic. I am not old enough. I leave romance to my seniors. 我简直太聪明了,有时连我自己都不知道自己在说什么。I am so clever that sometimes I don’t understand a single word of what I’m saying.I like talking to a brick wall, it's the only thing in the world that never contradicts me. I don't want to earn my living, I want to live.Be yourself, everyone else is already taken.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back.摆脱诱惑的唯一方法就是服从它。除了诱惑,我可以抵抗任何东西。The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. I can resist anything but temptation.当爱情走到尽头,弱者哭泣,能者另觅,而智者,早就预备好了下一个。When a love comes to an end, weaklings cry, efficient ones instantly find another love, and wise already had one in reserve.
对于建议,你所能做的,就是把它转送给别人。建议从来就不是给自己准备的。The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself.A man’s face is his autobiography. A woman’s face is her work of fiction.时尚总是丑得难以容忍,所以每隔六个月我们都只好改一次。Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.纨绔子弟是这样的人——知道所有东西的价格,但对“价值”,一无所知。A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything, and the value of nothing.人是理性动物,但当他被要求按照理性的要求行动时,可又要发脾气了。Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when he is called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason.Experience is the name every one gives to their mistakes.
What is the chief cause of divorce? Marriage.人生就是一件蠢事追着另一件蠢事而来,而爱情则是两个蠢东西追来追去。Life is one fool thing after another whereas love is two fool things after each other.
Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.The happiness of a married man depends on the people he has not married.应该向那些富有的单身汉征更高的税。他们比其他人都快乐,这不公平。Rich bachelors should be heavily taxed. It is not fair that some men should be happier than others.爱,始于自我欺骗,终于欺骗他人。这就是所谓的浪漫。When one is in love, one always begins by deceiveing one's self, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what wouldcalls a romance.
The heart was made to broken.A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal.敌人造成的困难很容易忍受,朋友取得的成功却让人难以忍受。It is very easy to endure the difficulties of one's enemies. It is the successes of one's friends that are hard to bear.人的一生中有两大悲剧:一种是没得到自己想要的东西,另一种是,得到了。There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.One can always be kind to people one cares nothing about.任何人都能对朋友的不幸感到同情,但要消受一个春风得意的朋友,则需要非常优良的天性。Anybody can sympathise with the sufferings of a friend, but it requires a very fine nature to sympathise with a friend's success.我想所有迷人的人都是被宠爱着的,这是他们魅力来源的秘密。(被偏爱的有恃无恐。)All charming people, I fancy, are spoiled. It is the secret of their attraction.用好坏来群分人是愚蠢荒谬的。人只有两种:迷人,或者乏味。It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.It is better to be beautiful than to be good, but it is better to be good than to be ugly.
每个圣人都有不可告人的过去,每个罪人都有洁白无瑕的未来。Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future.
Life is never fair…And perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not.To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.“生活”是个稀罕玩意儿,大部分人只是“存在”在这世上,如此而已。Every great man nowadays has his disciples,and it is always Judas who write the biography.Quotation is a serviceable substitute for wit.Religions die when they are proved to be true. Science is the record of dead religions.Life imitates art far more than art imitates Life. I adore simple pleasures. They are the last refuge of the complex. We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
