心满意足的

If I had the power to give humor to the nation I would not give them drollery, for that is impractical; I would not give them wit, for that is aristocratic, and many minds cannot grasp it; but I would be contented to deal out fun, which has no intellectual element, no subtlety, belongs to old and young, educated and uneducated alike, and is the natural form of the humor of the Englishman.

如果我有权给予此民族幽默的特质，那么我就不给予他们诙谐的本领，因为那不切实际；我也不给予他们风趣的风格，因为那过于贵族派头，以致多数人无法理解；我要心满意足地给予他们逗乐儿的本事，即不分智力高下，没有隐晦曲折，无论老少或受教育与否都能享受的英国式的自然幽默。

They look so absolutely peaceful and contented, as if they had been dozing there for years, that suddenly it seems to me as if we had been standing in this room, in exactly this position, for an incalculably long time, that it was a pose we had struck in a dream from which we never emerged, a dream which the least gesture, the wink of an eye even, will shatter.

这副车把摆在那儿显得非常宁静、十分心满意足，似乎它已在那儿打了多年瞌睡。这又突然使我觉得我俩仿佛也已在这间屋里仁立了很长的、无法计算的一段时间，就像现在这样。这是我们在梦中想起的一种姿势，这是一场我们永远难以摆脱的梦，又是一场微微打个手势、稍稍眨眨眼便会粉碎的梦。

It is a source of gratification and of encouragement to me to observe that the great result of this experiment upon the theory of human rights has at the close of that generation by which it was formed been crowned with success equal to the most sanguine expectations of its founders.

If thou workest at that which is before thee, following right reason seriously, vigorously, calmly, without allowing anything else to distract thee, but keeping thy divine part pure, as if thou shouldst be bound to give it back immediately; if thou holdest to this, expecting nothing, fearing nothing, but satisfied with thy present activity according to nature, and with heroic truth in every word and sound which thou utterest, thou wilt live happy.

如果你从事前人留下的事业，那请真诚地、热情地、坚定地服从正确的理性，不要让任何事情诱惑你分心，保持你神圣部分的纯洁，彷佛你要立刻将其归还；如果你从事於此，请专心致志，无所畏惧，对当下根据自然而为心满意足，在你说的每一句话里包含壮丽的真理，你将幸福生活，没有人能够阻止你。

因该，今天的全地球上仍有如此多的苦难存在……当我从街上带回唯一饥肠辘辘的人时，给他一盘饭，一片面包，我就能使他心满意足了，我就能躯除他的饥饿。

But, I thought, There will come a day when I will be happy. I'll have my own ranch with my own trout stream and I can retire. I can do what I want to do, go where I want to go, and be content.

Since the sixth grade, we had spent hours and days cutting out horse pictures for our walls, fantasizing of being grow, married and owning horse ranches side by side and doing nothing but riding to our hearts' content.
