生命中不能承受之輕
If eternal return is the heaviest of burdens, then our lives can stand out against it in all their splendid lightness. But, is heaviness truly deplorable and lightness splendid? The heaviest of burdens crushes us. We sink beneath it. It pins us to the ground. The heaviest of burdens is, therefore, simultaneously an image of life's most intense fulfillment. The heavier the burden, the closer our lives come to the earth; the more real and truthful they become.
如果永劫迴歸是最沉重的負擔，那麼我們的生活就能以其全部輝煌的輕鬆，來與之抗衡：可是，沉重便真的悲慘，而輕鬆便真的輝煌嗎?最沉重的負擔壓得我們崩塌了，沉沒了，將我們釘在地上、由此，最沉重的負擔同時也是一種生活最為充實的象徵j負擔越沉，我們的生活也就貼近大地，越趨近真切和實在。
Conversely, the absolute absence of a burden causes man to be lighter than air, to soar into the heights. Take leave of the earth and his earthly being and become only half real. His movements as free as they are insignificant. What then shall we choose; weight or lightness?
相反，完全沒有負擔，人變得比大氣還輕，會高高地飛起，離別大地亦即離別真實的生活。他將變得似真非真，運動自由而毫無意義，那麼我們將選擇什麼呢?沉重還是輕鬆?
I have been thinking about Tomas for many years. But only in the light of these reflections did I see him clearly. I saw him standing at the window of his flat and looking across the courtyard at the opposite walls not knowing what to do.
多少年來，我一直想著托馬斯，似乎只有憑藉回想的折光，我才能看清他這個人j我看見他站在公寓的窗臺前不知所措，越過庭院的目光，落在對面的牆上。
He had first met Tereza about three weeks earlier in a small Czech town. They had spent scarcely an hour together. She had accompanied him to the station and waited with him until he boarded the train. Ten days later she paid him a visit. They made love the day she arrived. That night she came down with a fever and stayed a whole week in his flat with the flu. He had come to feel an in-explicable love for this all but complete stranger. She seemed a child to him, a child someone had put in a bulrush basket docked with pitch and sent downstream for Tomas to fetch under the riverbank of his bed.
他與特麗莎初識於三個星期前捷克的一個小鎮上，兩人呆在一起還不到一個鐘頭，她就陪他去了車站，一直等到他上火車。十天後她去看他，而且兩人當天便做愛j不料夜裡她發起燒來，是流感，她在他的公寓裡呆了一個星期。對於這個幾乎是完全陌生的人，他慢慢地感到了一種莫名其妙的愛j對他來說，她像個孩子，被人放在樹脂塗覆的草筐裡順水漂來，而他在床榻之岸順手撈起了她。
He knelt down next to her. Her feverous breath quickened and she gave out a weak moan. He pressed his face to hers and whispered calming words into her sleep. And all at once he fancied she had been with him for many years and was dying. He had a sudden clear feeling that he would not survive her death. He would lie down beside her and want to die with her. He pressed his face into the pillow beside her head and kept it there for a long time.
他跪在她的床邊，見她燒得呼吸急促，微微呻吟，他用臉貼在她的臉，輕聲安慰她，直到她睡著。剎那間，他幻想著自己與她在一起已有漫漫歲月，而現在她正行將死去。他突然清楚地意識到自己不能挺過她死去的這一劫，他得躺在她身邊，與她一同赴死，他挨著她的頭，把臉埋在枕頭裡過了許久。
Now he was standing at the window trying to call that moment to account. What could it have been if not love declaring itself to him? But was it love? The feeling of wanting to die beside her was clearly exaggerated; he had seen her only once before in his life. Was it simply the hysteria of a man who aware deep down of his inaptitude for love, felt the self-deluding need to simulate it? His unconscious was so cowardly that the best partner he could choose for his life comedy was this miserable provincial waitress with practically no chance at all to enter his life.
現在他站在窗前，極力回想那一刻的情景。若他清楚感受到的這種感情不是愛，又會是什麼呢?但這是愛嗎?那種想死在她身邊的情感顯然有些誇張：在這以前他僅僅見了她一面!那麼，明明知道這種愛不甚適當，難道這只是一個歇斯底里的男人感到自欺之需而做出的舉動嗎?他的無意識是如此懦弱，一個小小的玩笑就使他選擇了這樣一個可憐的、壓根兒不可能進入他生活的鄉間女招待，作為他的最佳伴侶!
He remained annoyed with himself until he realized that not knowing what he really wanted was actually quite natural. We can never know what to want because, living only one life, we can neither compare it with our previous lives nor perfect it in our lives to come.
他生著自己的氣，直到他弄明白自己的茫然無措其實也很自然我們是永遠也不知道自己要什麼的，因為人的生命只有一次，我們既不能把它與我們前世相比較，也無法使其在後世完美度過。
There is no means of testing which decision is better because there is no basis for comparison. We live even-thing as it comes. Without warming, like an actor going on cold. And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself?
沒有比較的基點，因此沒有任何辦法可以檢驗何種選擇更好我們經歷著生活中突然臨頭的一切，毫無防備，就像演員進入初排如果生活的第一排練便是生活本身，那生活有什麼價值呢?
"Einmal ist keinmal", says Tomas to himself. What happens but once, says the German adage, might as well not have happened at all. If we have only one life to live, we might as well not have lived at all.
“Finmal ist Keinmal"托馬斯自言自語，這句德國諺語說，只發生過一次的事就像壓根兒沒有發生過.如果生命屬於我們只有一次，我們當然也可以說根本沒有過生命。

熱愛生活
However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.
不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞：你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂裡也能找到缺點。
Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.
你要愛你的生活，儘管它貧窮。快活、激動和光榮的時光即使是在濟貧院裡也享受得到。夕陽照射在貧民居所的窗戶上所反射的光同照在富人公寓的窗戶上所反射的光一樣耀眼奪目，都能使得門前的積雪在早春消融。
I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there and have as cheering thoughts. As in a palace, the town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.
我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪裡也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。依我之見，城鎮的貧民倒是往往過著最獨立不羈的.生活。
May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported by the town, but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, which should be more disreputable.
也許他們十分偉大，對任何事情皆可坦然受之。 大多數人認為他們不屑於接受城鎮的施救; 但是實際上他們經常使用不誠實的手段來維持自己的生計，這是更為不體面的。
Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change, we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
像聖賢一樣，如同栽培花園中的花草一般來培養貧困吧。不要自找麻煩地去追求新鮮事物，新衣物和新朋友。讓舊物常新，迴歸舊物。萬物不變，是我們在變。衣服可以賣掉，但要永存思想。

我為什麼活著
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life, the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a great ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.
三種簡單而強烈的情感支配著我的生活：對愛的渴望、對知識的追求和對受苦之人的同情?這些情感就像大風一樣，把我隨風捲起，飄忽不定地越過痛苦之海，來到了絕望的邊緣。
I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy-ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness-that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss .I have sought it finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life. This is what-at last-l have found.
我追尋過愛，首先，因為它給我帶來了莫大的喜悅——這喜悅是如此的強烈，往往會讓我犧牲生命中其他的一切只為了體驗幾個小時愛的喜悅j其次，它排遣了寂寞——在那種可怕的寂寞之中，一個顫抖的靈魂，越過世界的邊際，進入那酷寒，深不可測而又了無生氣的無底深淵，我追求過愛，最後是因為在愛的結合中我看過聖人和詩人所希冀的天堂的微縮景象這就是我所追尋的人生的境界，這似乎對人類而言太過美好，這是我最終所發現的。
With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished Lo understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.
我對於知識有著同樣的渴望二我希望能瞭解人類的•心靈，我想知道為什麼星星在夜空閃爍：我試圖去理解畢達哥拉斯學派的力量即用數字去統治那些不理性二在這個方面，我有點小小的成就。
Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness poverty and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate this evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.
如果愛和知識是可能的，那麼他們能帶我們到達天堂：但是人類的苦難又使我回到了人間。忍飢挨餓的孩子，被壓迫的人民，無助的老人成了孩子的負擔，還有滿世界的孤獨，貧困和痛苦對於人類生活的理想進行了無盡的嘲弄二我想遠離這個惡魔，但是我無能為力，所以也我痛苦著。
This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.
這就是我的生活。而且我覺得這樣的生活很值得：如果能再給我一個機會，我會很高興再活一次。
