my favorite motto
handianyuan 发表于 2008/2/22 18:17:00

3.To do a great right do a little wrong!

为了大是,不拘小节!

4. To be, or not to be-------that is the question.

5.Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

     --------Ulysses written by Alfred Tennyson

Notes:

in Greek mythology, Ulysses is the king of the Ithaca island. He is the hero in many literary classics. In Homer's Odessey(the Greek name for Ulysses), Ulysses eventually arrives home after the ten-year TRojan war and another ten years' adventures at sea. However, according to Dante, Ulysses never returns to his home place, Ithaca, but urges his men to go on exploring westward. Tennyson combines these two versions. In this poem, Ulysses is now three years back in his homeland, reunited with his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus, and resumes his rule over the land. But he will not endure the peaceful commonplace everyday life. Old as he is , he persuades his old followers to go with him and to set sail again to pursure a new world and new knowledge. Written in the form of dramatic monologue, the poem not only expresses, through the mouth of the heroic Ulysses, Tennyson's own determination and courage to brave the struggle of life but also reflects the restlessness and aspiration of the age.

 

6.The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water.

   ----------written by Ernest Hemingway
