十句箴言來自猶太人 10 proverbs from Jews
1 一杯清水因滴入一滴污水而變污濁，一杯污水卻不會因一滴清水的存在而變清澈。
A drop of dirty water will contaminate a glass of clean water, whereas a drop of clean water will not purify a glass of dirty water.
2 這世上有三樣東西是別人搶不走的：一是吃進胃裡的食物，二是藏在心中的夢想，三是讀進大腦的書。
There are three things in the world that people can not take away from you:
a. the food in your stomach,
b. the dream in your bosom,
c. the knowledge in your mind.
3 馬在鬆軟的土地上易失蹄，人在甜言蜜語中易摔跤。
Horses are liable to stumble over soft grounds, so are people over sweet talks.
4 世界沒有悲劇和喜劇之分，如果你能從悲劇中走出來，那就是喜劇，如果你沉緬於喜劇之中，那它就是悲劇。
There is no distinction between tragedy and comedy. The tragedy you can get over from is a piece of comedy; the comedy you indulge yourself with is a piece of tragedy.
5 如果不讀書，行萬里路也不過是個郵差。
Without reading, you are nothing but a mailman even you've trod thousands of miles.
6 當你的鄰居在深夜兩點彈鋼琴時你別氣惱，你可以在四點鐘時叫醒他，並告訴他你很欣賞他的演奏。
Don't get riled up when your neighbor plays piano at two o'clock in the morning; you can wake him up at four and tell him of your admiring his performance.
7 如果你只是等待，發生的事情只會是你變老了。
If you do nothing but wait, you'll find the only thing would happen is your getting old.
8 真正的朋友不是在一起有聊不完的話，而是即使不說一句話也不覺得尷尬。
Real friendship doesn't mean endless talks when people getting together; instead, it means no need of an ice-breaker even there is only silence between them.
9 時間是治療心靈創傷的大師，但絕不是解決問題的高手。
Time is a master of curing trauma, but absolutely not an expert in solving problems.
1 0 寧願做過了後悔，也不要錯過了後悔。
It'd better regret of doing something, rather than regret of missing something.
