Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; [00:00:18]
青春,并非人生的一个阶段,而是一种心境 [00:00:22]
it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; [00:00:22]
青春,并非粉颊红唇和矫健的体魄,而是指坚强的意志、理性思维中的创造潜力,; [00:00:28]
it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; [00:00:28]
是情感活动中的一股勃勃朝气 [00:00:35]
it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. [00:00:35]
它是人生的一谭清泉 [00:00:39]
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, [00:00:39]
青春意味着一种气质:勇猛果敢,决不怯懦退缩[00:00:43]
of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. [00:00:43]
渴求冒险而不贪图安逸。[00:00:49]
This often exits in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. [00:00:49]
60岁的老人可能比20岁的小伙子更多地拥有这种气质。 [00:00:54]
Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. [00:00:54]
没有人仅仅因为时光的流逝而变得衰老[00:00:57]
We grow old by deserting our ideals. [00:00:57]
只有放弃理想才日益衰老[00:01:01]
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. [00:01:01]
岁月可能在皮肤上生出皱纹,但丧失热情则会让心灵起皱。 [00:01:07]
Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. [00:01:07]
忧虑、恐惧、自卑只会让人心灰意冷,变成一堆行尸走肉[00:01:15]
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonder, [00:01:15]
无论是60岁还是16岁,每个人的心都被新奇事物所吸引[00:01:23]
the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living. [00:01:23]
都对未来之事和人生竞争中的欢乐怀着孩子般无穷无尽的渴望. [00:01:29]
In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; [00:01:29]
在你我心灵的深处都有一座无线电台;[00:01:35]
so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power [00:01:35]
只要它不停地从人群中、从无限的时空中接收美的信息,[00:01:42]
from men and from the infinite, so long are you young. [00:01:42]
接收充满希望、激励、勇气和力量的信息,你我就会永葆青春[00:01:47]
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered [00:01:47]
一旦这天线坍塌,[00:01:51]
with the snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, [00:01:51]
一旦你的心灵被玩世不恭的寒雪和悲观绝望的冰霜所覆盖,[00:01:56]
then you are grown old, even at 20; [00:01:56]
即使你年方20,你便已衰老了[00:01:59]
but as long as your aerials are up, [00:01:59]
但如果天线始终矗立在你的心中,在捕捉每一个乐观向上的电波,[00:02:02]
to catch waves of optimism, there's hope you may die young at 80.[00:02:02]
那么你便有希望在80岁的年纪仍拥有一颗年轻的心。[00:02:08]
