快乐无处不在
1、快乐无处不在。
Seen on the bathroom walls of Concordia University: "Ignorance is bliss.” and right underneath it..."I don't know what this means but I'm happy."
Concordia大学卫生间的墙上写着：“无知是福”，正下方写着：“我不知道这是什么意思，但我很高兴”。
2、结婚的结果还是不错的。
By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll become happy, if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.
想办法结婚吧，如果你找到一个好妻子，你会幸福的，如果找了一个恶老婆，你会成为一个哲学家。
注：很多时候婚姻幸福会磨灭人们的斗志，而婚姻不幸给人带来苦难，但会让人思考。
3、虽然我们不再有快乐的童年时光，但我们应该尽量保持童心。
It's Never Too Late To Have A Happy Childhood.
拥有一个快乐的童年从来都不晚。
4、信心很重要。
The happy idea that one Englishman can beat three Frenchman, encourages, and sometimes enabled, one Englishman, in reality, to beat two.
“一个英国人能够打败三个法国人”这种快乐的观念鼓励着英国人，有时侯能够使一个英国人实际上打败两个法国人。
5、信仰快乐。
The believer is happy, the doubter is wise
有信仰的人是愉快的，怀疑者是聪明的。
注：信仰上帝的人每当有了烦恼或者困惑就求助于上帝，他们是快乐的；怀疑者愿意动脑筋去思考，去分辨，脑筋越用越聪明。
6、任何事情都可以让人高兴。
I'm delighted to find that after all these years my tennis game has not deteriorated.[退化] It’s just as bad as before.
我很高兴这些年我的 网球技术没有退化，还象以前那么臭。
7、不该激动时不要瞎激动。
A boy frog telephones the Psychic Hotline and his Personal Psychic Advisor tells him: "You are going to meet a beautiful young girl who will want to know everything about you."
The frog is thrilled, "This is great! Will I meet her at a party?"
"No," says his Advisor, "in her biology class."
一个雄性小青蛙打通心灵热线，他的私人心理咨询师告诉他，“你将遇到一个年轻美貌的女孩，她想知道你所有的事情”。
小青蛙很激动，“太棒了，我会在晚会上遇见她吗”？
“不，在她的生物课上”。
8、终于逃离了父母的唠叨，朋友的骚扰，太自由了。
Think how it must feel to be alone in New York, without a friend or relation at hand, with no one to know or care what to do. It must be great!
想一想一个人在纽约是什么感受，身边没有一个亲戚朋友，没有人知道你做什么，也没有人关心。那肯定太棒了！
场景再现：身在异乡，独自一人的感受。
9、别人意外发现自己做了好事。
The greatest pleasure I know is to do a good deed anonymously, and then have it found out by accident
最愉快的事儿是偷偷做好事，然后偶然被发现。
10、人的一生要经历很多瞎高兴。
A weary hiker stumbled upon another hiker deep in the North Woods. “Am I ever glad to see you,” said the hiker. “I’ve been lost for three days.”
“Don’t be too relieved,” answered the second hiker. “I’ve been lost for three weeks.”
一个疲惫的野游者在森林深处遇到另一个野游者，他说，“非常高兴遇见你，我已经迷路三天了”。
“别太放松了，”第二个野游者回答，“我已经迷路三个月了”。
11、真实世界无奇不有，如果我们培养一双 幽默的眼睛，生活里到处是笑话。
My way of joking is to tell the truth. It's the funniest joke in the world.
我讲笑话的方式是讲实话，那是世界上最可笑的笑话。
12、丑和美没有绝对的界限。
Ugliness is a point of view: an ulcer is wonderful to a pathologist. 丑陋是一种观点，溃疡对病理学家是美妙的东西。
13、免费的晚餐让你高兴。
Hasn't this been just a wonderful evening? The setting, the music, the program ____ and the dinner was served just the way I like it ____ free.
难道这不是一个美好的夜晚吗？这布景、这音乐、这节目 ——晚餐的供应方式也是喜欢的那种——免费的
14、演讲完了，没人鼓掌掌声，你依然快乐。
Thank you for that wonderful round of restraint.
谢谢你们了不起的克制力。
15、乐观的态度。
Dad: What is the meaning of this F on your report card?
Junior: Fantastic?
爸爸：你成绩单上的F是什么意思？
Junior：棒极了！
16、自我感觉非常良好的乐观主义者说：
When I’m good I’m very, very good --- but when I’m bad
I’m better.
当我感觉好时，我非常、非常好——当我感觉不好时，我比较好。
17、多看事情好的一面：
It was said President Ford gave American three years of good government and eight years of comedy [喜剧] material.
据说总统福特给了美国三年的好政府和八年的喜剧素材。
注：讽刺福特总统任职8年闹了很多笑话。
18、虽然空气污染这么厉害，也还是活着好。
Twilight was descending over Los Angeles ...“How good it was to be alive," I thought, inhaling deep lungful of carbon monoxide.
微光正降临洛杉机……活着真好，我想，深深地吸了一口一氧化碳。
19、保持心情愉快，不怨天尤人。
Laugh and the world laughs with you; snore and you sleep alone.
笑，别人和你一起笑；打呼噜，你独自睡觉。
