- After this, he pressed me earnestly, and in the most affectionate manner, not to play the young man, not to precipitate myself into miseries which nature and the station of life i was born in, seemed to have provided against .
接着他十分诚恳而慈蔼地劝我不要闹小孩子脾气，不要自寻苦恼，因为无论从事理来说，从我的家庭出身来说，这些苦恼都是可以避免的。 - A mark of true nobility is , not to hold one ' s bead high , but to bear oneself humbly in a high station of life
真正高贵的标志并不是趾高气扬，而是身居高位而谦虚谨慎。 - Now i saw plainly the goodness of his observations about the middle station of life , how easy , how comfortably he had liv d all his days , and never had been expos d to tempests at sea , or troubles on shore ; and i resolv d that i would , like a true repenting prodigal , go home to my father
同时，我也醒悟到，我父亲关于中间阶层生活的看法，确实句句在理。就拿我父亲来说吧，他一生平安舒适，既没有遇到过海上的狂风恶浪，也没有遭到过陆上的艰难困苦。我决心，我要像一个真正回头的浪子，回到家里，回到我父亲的身边。 - Such is the uneven state of human life : and it afforded me a great many curious speculations afterwards , when i had a little recover d my first surprize ; i consider d that this was the station of life the infinitely wise and good providence of god had determin d for me , that as i could not foresee what the ends of divine wisdom might be in all this , so i was not to dispute his sovereignty , who , as i was his creature , had an undoubted right by creation to govern and dispose of me absolutely as he thought fit ; and who , as i was a creature who had offended him , had likewise a judicial right to condemn me to what punishment he thought fit ; and that it was my part to submit to bear his indignation , because i had sinn d against him
仿佛上天认定我不足与人类为伍，不足与其他人交往似的。我当时觉得，假如我能见到一个人，对我来说不亚于死而复生，那将是上帝所能赐给我的最大的幸福，这种幸福仅次于上帝饶恕我在人间所犯的罪孽，让我登上天堂。而现在呢，只要疑心可能会看到人，我就会不寒而栗只要见到人影，看到人在岛上留下的脚印无声无息地躺在那里，我就恨不得地上有个洞让我钻下去。
