微不足道的东西

Always give your best,never get discouraged,never be petty Richard M.Nixon.What is picayune is of negligible value or importance

永远奉献出你最好的，绝不灰心，绝不吝啬。picayune的东西是微不足道的或不值一提的

I've seen multi-million pound projects get scrapped at 99% of completion because of a change of business needs or a new IT director or any number of what appeared to me to be the most trivial of reasons.

我已经看到了数百万英镑的项目，获得99％的完成，由于取消了业务需求的变化或新的IT主管或任何的东西在我看来是最微不足道的原因数目。

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.

当你从精神上搁置那些无关紧要的东西，包括服装、朋友、身体、已经养成了的习惯、饮食口味、与生俱来的性格、对事物的偏见以及所有你认为并不是自己不可或缺的身外之物，那些珍珠色的脑细胞仍然会存留下来，那里便是你最终的栖身之所。微不足道的脑细胞令你拥有接受、感知的能力，而其中大部分的感觉你都清楚是虚幻的。

One always discovers them voluntarily or involuntarily at the same task, namely at dragging the partie honteuse of our inner world into the foreground and seeking the truly effective and directing agent, that which has been decisive in its evolution, in just that place where the intellectual pride of man would least desire to find it (in the vis inertiae of habit, for example, or in forgetfulness, or in a blind and chance mechanistic hooking-together of ideas, or in something purely passive, automatic, reflexive, molecular, and thoroughly stupid)—what is it really that always drives these psychologists in just this direction?

人们发现他们总是在有意或无意地做着同一件事：就是把我们内心世界中的龌龊部分暴露出来，从中寻找积极的、先进的、于人类发展有决定作用的因素，而这是些人类智慧的尊严最不愿意看到的部位，他们就是在这些习惯势力中，在健忘中，在盲目和偶然的思想网络和思想机制中，在任何一种纯粹被动的、机械的、反射性的、微不足道的和本质上是愚蠢的部位找寻积极的因素。到底是什么东西使得这些心理学家总是朝着这一个方向努力？

Their contributions were trivial compared to what the Continentals were able to achieve using the analytical approach.

他们的贡献和大陆上的人用分析方法所能得到的东西比起来是微不足道的。

There is the little domestic scenery of the well-known apartment;the chairs,with each its separate individuality;the center-table,sustaining a work-basket,a volume or two,and an extinguished lamp;the sofa;the book-case;the picture on the wall--all these details,so completely seen,are so spiritualised by the unusual light,that they seem to lose their actual substance,and become things of intellect,Nothing is too small or too trifling to undergo this change,and acquire dignity thereby,a child's shoe;the doll,seated in her little wicker carriage;the hobby-horse-whatever,in a word,has been used or played with during the day is now invested with a quality of strange ness and remoteness,though still almost as vividly present as ba daylight.

小小的房间里一切都是那么熟悉：一把把椅子，每把都有不同的特征，一张中心桌，上面放着一袋工具包，一两卷册，一盏熄灭的灯，沙发，书柜，强上壁画--所有的这一切尽收眼里。在月光的照射下，他们仿佛有了灵性，失去了实体，蕴含了思想感情。在渺小在微不足道的事物，也能体验这种转变，彰显高贵。孩子穿过的鞋，坐在柳条编成的小马车里的洋娃娃以及玩具马--无论什么在白天时用过或玩过的东西，现在都变得那么遥远而陌生，尽管白天的情景还历历在目。

Plunder melds and run with this jewel!

掠夺melds和运行与此宝石！

My dream is to be a crazy growing tree and extend at the edge between the city and the forest.

此刻，也许正是在通往天国的路上，我体验着这白色的晕旋。
