i went to the woods because i wanted to live deliberately ...
i wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life!
to put to rout all that was not life...
and not when i came to die, discover that i had not lived...
我步入丛林，希望活得更有意义 ...
我希望活得深刻，汲取所有生命之精髓!
击溃所有非生命的事物...
在生命终结时，不想感叹自己从没活过 ...
we don't read and write poetry because it's cute. we read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. and the human race is filled with passion. and medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. but poetry, beauty，romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
我们读诗写诗，并非为它的智慧，而因为我们是人类的一份子。人类充满激情。
医药，法律，商业，工程，这些都是高贵的理想，是维生的基础。
然而，诗歌、美、浪漫、爱情，这些才是我们生存的原因。
