忍耐的

Mistakes of the First Twenty-five Years To quote Robert Benchley,"Having a dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to turn around three times before lying down." Such are the shortcomings of experience. Nevertheless, it's a good idea to review past mistakes before committing new ones. So let's take a quick look at the last 25 years. o My first mistake, of course, was in buying control of Berkshire.

头 25 年所犯的错误套用 Robert Benchley 的名言："要一只狗教小孩子忠诚，忍耐，并此能够滚三圈再在地上躺好"，这就是经验传承的难处，不过不论如何，再犯下一错误之前，最好能够先反省一下以前的那些错误，所以让我们花点时间回顾一下过去 25 年的经验。

I swear to you by him who died for us that naught shall induce me to breathe one syllable to my jailers; but I conjure you do not abandon me. If you do, I swear to you, for I have got to the end of my strength, that I will dash my brains out against the wall, and you will have my death to reproach yourself with.""

我以基督的名义向你发誓，我情愿让他们杀了我也不会向刽子手们吐露一点实情的，看在上帝的份上，别离开，别不和我说话，不然我向你发誓因为我已忍耐到了极限，我会把头在墙上撞碎的，会懊悔的。""

我家婆小嘴宋祖英一直教导我，退一步海阔天空，叫我眼不见为净。 But，是可忍孰不可忍！虽然作为一个有教养的名门闺秀，但我的忍耐也是有底线的！你们都把涎水、哈喇子流到我德德老公的秃头上了，我再不出手，大好的一个德德老公岂不是要被你们这帮女魔头强抱了？我是不会允许你们白白凌辱我男人的！除非你们给小费我！哼！

The inoffensiveness of the weak man, even the cowardice of which he has so much, his lingering at the door, his being ineluctably compelled to wait, here acquire flattering names, such as 'patience,' and are even called virtue itself; his inability for revenge is called unwillingness to revenge, perhaps even forgiveness ('for they know not what they do—we alone know what they do!').

弱者的无害，他特有的怯懦，他倚门而立的态度，他无可奈何的等待，在这儿都被冠上好的名称，被称为'忍耐'，甚至还意味着美德；无能报复被称为不愿报复，甚至还可能称为宽恕（"因为他们不知道他们干的是什么，只有我们才知道他们干的是什么！"）。

The chronic kicker, even the most violent critic, will frequently soften and be subdued in the presence of a patient, sympathetic listener - a listener who will he silent while the irate fault-finder dilates like a king cobra and spews the poison out of his system.

最爱挑剔的人，最激烈的批评者，往往会在一个怀有忍耐、同情的静听者面前软化下来！这位静听者，必须要有过人的沉着，他必须当着寻衅者像一条大毒蛇张开嘴巴的时候--静听。

Remembering unceasingly your work of faith and labor of love and endurance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ .
