摘录短小精悍的英文句子

(2019-10-19 20:39:52) 下一个

  有时会在书店买打折的日历,一是喜欢图片的美丽,二是喜欢图片下的英文短句。

  现转摘如下:

  “Grief can take care of itself; but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with."

  ---MARK TWAIN

 

  "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase"

  ---MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR

"You practice and you get better. It's very simple."

  ---PHILIP GLASS

 

  "You can't move so fast that you try to change the mores faster than people can accept it. That doesn't mean that you do nothing , but it means that you do the things that need to be done according to priority."

  ---ELEANOR ROOSEVELT

 

  "To move , to breathe, to fly, to float

  To gain all while you give,

  To roam the roads of lands remote,

  To travel is to live!"

  ---HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN

 

  "Simplify the problem of life:

  distinguish the necessary and the real.

  Probe the earth to see where your main roots run."

  ---HENRY DAVID THOREAU

 

  "Broadly speaking ,

  short words are best,

  and the old words, when short.,

  are best of all."

  ---WINSTON CHURCHILL

 

  "Most of the luxuries, and many of the so-called comforts of life, are not only not indispensable , but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind."

  ---HENRY DAVID THOREAU

 

  "Rain is grace;

  rain is the sky condescending to the earth;

  without rain, there would be no life."

  ---JOHN UPDIKE

 

  "Better keep yourself clean and bright:

  You are the window through which

  you must see the world."

  ---GEORGE BERNARD SHAW
