My mother's idea of a modern kitchen congers up something resembling a school kitchen, and that is a shame because a modern kitchen today has endless possibilities.

因为一个现代厨房今天有不尽的可能性，一个类似学校厨房的某事的现代厨房海鳗之类的我的母亲的想法和那是羞辱。

But, if this world is not merely a bad joke, life a vulgar flare amid the cool radiance of the stars, and existence an empty laugh braying across the mysteries, if these intimations of a something behind and beyond are not evil humour born of indigestion, or whimsies sent by the devil to mock and madden us, in a word, beauty means someting, yet we must not seek to interpret the meaning.

但是，如果这个世界不只是一场恶作剧的话，如果生命不只是惨淡的星光里的平凡的一闪的话，如果存在不只是神秘的宗教仪式传出的一阵空虚的笑声的话，如果对某种玄妙的事物的暗示不是由于消化不良而引起的不好情绪，或者不是一种魔鬼送来嘲笑我们并使我们发狂的怪念头的话，一句话，如果美有某种意义的话，我们千万不要设法去阐明它的意义。

If this world is not merely a bad joke,life a vulgar flare amid the cool radiance of the stars,and existence an empty laugh braying across the mysteries;if there intimations of a spmething behind and beyond are not evil humour born of indigestion,or whimsies sent by the devil to mock and madden us,if,in a word,beauty means something,yet we must not seek to interpret with the meaning.

如果这个世界不只是一个拙劣的恶作剧，如果人生不只是群星寒光中平凡的一闪，如果存在不只是对平凡事物的一阵空虚的笑声，如果某种玄妙事物的暗示不是消化不良引起的邪恶情绪，也不是魔鬼为了捉弄我们，是我们发狂而送给我们的邪念，一句话，如果美有某种意义的话，我们千万不要去阐明它。

Skolion: banquet song along with the accompaniment of a hired lyre player or piper, the guests took turns singing something--a hymn, a commentary, a piece of advice, anything they wished--or continuing what had been sung by the previous singer.

饮酒歌：宴会歌曲这类歌曲和着雇佣里拉琴手和笛手的伴奏，客人轮流演唱，包括赞美诗、评论、劝告等一些他们所要祝愿的，也可以连续演唱由前面的人演唱过的内容。

If you will try to form a notion of yourself, of the sort of a something that you suspect to inhabit and partially to control your flesh and blood body, you will encounter a walking bundle of superfluities: and when you mentally have put aside the extraneous things—your garments and your members and your body, and your acquired habits and your appetites and your inherited traits and your prejudices, and all other appurtenances which considered separately you recognize to be no integral part of you,—there seems to remain in those pearl-colored brain-cells, wherein is your ultimate lair, very little save a faculty for receiving sensations, of which you know the larger portion to be illusory.

确实，一个容易上当受骗的认知，暂时地生存于一堆难解的奥秘里，这真不是一个可羡的处境。但是，这个人生——这个我执著依恋的人生——不会再来。与此同时，我常听人谈起&真理&，他们甚至为自己的对真理的了解大下赌注：但我更愿与&善戏谑的彼拉多&为伍，响应他丢弃的至今未被解答的关于什么是真理的疑问。

If you will try to form a notion of yourself, of the sort of a something that you suspect to inhabit and partially to control your flesh and blood body, you will encounter a walking bundle of superfluities: and when you mentally have put aside the extraneous things—your garments and your members and your body, and your acquired habits and your appetites and your inherited traits and your prejudices, and all other appurtenances which considered separately you recognize to be no integral part of you,—there seems to remain in those pearl-colored brain-cells, wherein is your ultimate lair, very little save a faculty for receiving sensations, of which you know the larger portion to be illusory.

当你在思想上把这些多余物搁置一边——你的衣服、四肢、躯体，你的习惯、口味、遗传特点及偏见，还有其他所有细想之下觉得非必需的附属品——然后你就会发现在人类最后的家园——珍珠色的脑细胞中，几乎就没有留下接收情感的感官了。而你很清楚：大部分的情感不过是幻觉罢了。

A notion of yourself, of the sort of a something that you suspect to inhabit and partially to control your flesh and blood body, you will encounter a walking bundle of superfluities: and when you mentally have put aside the extraneous things—your garments and your members and your body, and your acquired habits and your appetites and your inherited traits and your prejudices, and all other appurtenances which considered separately you recognize to be no integral part of you,—there seems to remain in those pearl-colored brain-cells, wherein is your ultimate lair, very little save a faculty for receiving sensations, of which you know the larger portion to be illusory.

如果你努力树立这样的一种概念，一种你怀疑是否存在，能否部分控制你的血肉之躯的自我概念，一大堆可有可无的多余东西会出现在你面前：接下来当你有意识的把这些身外之物——你的衣物，器官和身体以及你养成的习惯，胃口，所遗传到的特点和你的偏见，其它所有附属品，在你看来各自都不能称为你整体一部分的东西——搁在一边时，它们似乎还是残留在那些珍珠色的脑细胞当中，而你最终的藏身之地也在于此，只剩下很少的空间用以接收情感，而且你知道就这些情感，其中大部分还是不真实的。

If you will try to form a notion of yourself, of the sort of a something that you suspect to inhabit and partially to control your flesh and blood body, you will encounter a walking bundle of superfluities: and when you mentally have put aside the extraneous things-your garments and your members and your body, and your acquired habits and your appetites and your inherited traits and your prejudices, and all other appurtenances which considered separately you recognize to be no integral part of you,-there seems to remain in those pearl-colored brain-cells, wherein is your ultimate lair, very little save a faculty for receiving sensations, of which you know the larger portion to be illusory.

如果仅仅为了生存或单纯地为了换取身体的自由而给自己下一个连自己都无法信服的定义，这简直是画蛇添足毫无裨益。当你在思想上将一切身外之物，如衣着、亲友、肉体和后天形成的习惯、口味以及与生俱来的特质、偏见等等在你看来并非是自身必不可少的一部分而需额外费力劳心的东西，统统抛诸脑后，那么在你最后的精神家园----珍珠色的脑细胞中用来接纳感觉的空间就微乎其微了，因为你会发现所谓的感觉在很大程度上来讲只是一种幻想。

If you will try to form a notion of yourself, of the sort of a something that you suspect to inhabit and partially to control your flesh and blood body, you will encounter a walking bundle of superfluities: and when you mentally have put aside the extraneous things—your garments and your members and your body, and your acquired habits and your appetites and your inherited traits and your prejudices, and all other appurtenances which considered separately you recognize to be no integral part of you,—there seems to remain in those pearl-colored brain-cells, wherein is your ultimate lair, very little save a faculty for receiving sensations, of which you know the larger portion to be illusory.

假如你试图构造出一个&你自己&的概念，构造出你觉得是在占据并部分控制你血肉之躯的这么一个东西的概念，那你就会遇上&一副行走着的皮囊&要你处理：你在脑海里会想着把这些与&你自己&无关的东西——衣裳、四肢、躯体、后天习惯、口味、先天特征、个人成见、以及分离之后你认为不是构成&你&所必需的其他部件——通通剔除出去，剩下珍珠般灰白色的脑细胞，就是&你&的老窝，但是残存其中的，除了知觉功能，好像就所剩无几了。而你知道，知觉又多半是虚幻之象。

In the negative and interrogative forms, of course, this is identical to the non-emphatic forms.
