1、一个幸福晚年的秘决不是别的,而是与孤寂签订一个体面的协定。
the secret of a happy old age is nothing else but a decent agreement with loneliness.
2、即使以为自己的感情已经干涸得无法给予,也总会有一个时刻一样东西能拨动心灵深处的弦;我们毕竟不是生来就享受孤独。
even if one's feelings have been dried up, there will always be a moment to move the deep strings of the soul; after all, we are not born to enjoy loneliness.
3、因为我认为虚幻只是粉饰现实的一种工具。但是,归根结底,创作的源泉永远是现实。而虚幻,或者说单纯的臆造,就像沃尔特·迪斯尼的东西一样,不以现实为依据,最令人厌恶。记得有一次,我兴致勃勃地写了一本童话,取名《虚度年华的海洋》,我把清样寄给了你。你像过去一样,坦率地对我说你不喜欢这本书。你认为,虚幻至少对你来说,真是不知所云。你的话是我幡然醒悟,因为孩子们也不喜欢虚幻,他们喜欢想象的东西。虚幻和想象之间的区别,就跟口技演员手里操纵的木偶和真人一样。
because I think illusory is just a tool to whitewash reality. But in the final analysis, the source of creation is always a reality. And illusory or simple fabrication, like Walter Disney's stuff, is not based on reality. It's most disgusting. I remember a time when I wrote a fairy tale enthusiastically, named "the sea of wasted time", and I sent it to you. As you used to tell me frankly, you don't like this book. You think that illusory is at least incomprehensible to you. Your words are my awakening, because children do not like illusory, they like to imagine things. The difference between illusion and imagination is just like that of a puppet manipulated puppet and a real person.
4、现实并非纸上之物,它就在我们身边,每天左右无数生死,同时也滋养着永不枯竭、充满了美好与不幸的创作源泉,我这个四处漂泊、思乡心切的哥伦比亚人只是蒙幸运女神的眷顾。现实是如此匪夷所思,生活在其中的我们,无论诗人或乞丐,战士或歹徒,都无需太多想象力,最大的挑战是无法用常规之法使人相信我们真实的生活。朋友们,这就是我们孤独的症结所在。
the reality is not a piece of paper, it is around us, every day and so many lives and death, but also nourishes never exhausted, full of beautiful and unfortunate creative fountainhead, my wandering, homesick Columbia people are only blessed with the goddess of luck. The reality is so unthinkable that we do not need too much imagination, whether a poet or beggar, a beggar, a warrior or a gangster, and the greatest challenge is that it is impossible to convince people of our real life by conventional methods. My friends, this is the crux of our loneliness.
5、说实话,如果一个想法经不起多年的丢弃,我是决不会有兴趣的。而如果这种想法确实经得起考验,就像我写《百年孤独》想了十五年,写《家长的没落》想了十六年,写《一件事先张扬的凶杀案》想了三十年一样,那么,到时候就会瓜熟蒂落,我就写出来了。
to be honest, if an idea can't afford to discard for many years, I will never be interested. And if this idea does stand up to the test, like I wrote "100 years of loneliness" for fifteen years, write "the decline of the parents" for sixteen years, write "a beforehand murder case" thought for thirty years, then, then it will fall down, I will write it.
6、她提醒他,弱者永远无法进入爱情的王国,因为那是一个严酷、吝啬的国度,女人只会对意志坚强的男人俯首称臣。因为只有这样的男人才能带给她们安全感,他们渴求这种安全感,以面对生活的挑战。
she reminded him that the weak can never enter the kingdom of love, because it is a harsh, stingy country, women will only be the strong will of the man. Because only such a man can give them a sense of security. They crave this sense of security to face the challenges of life.
7、作家描绘现实的非常企图,经常导致他用扭曲的观点来看待它。为了试图将现实变形,他会最终丧失与它的接触,关在一座象牙塔里。对此,新闻工作是一种非常好的防范。这便是我一直想要不停地做新闻工作的原因,因为它让我保持了与真实世界的接触。
the writer's very attempt to portray reality often leads him to see it in a distorted way. In order to try to transform reality, he will eventually lose contact with him in an ivory tower. Journalism is a good precaution against this. This is why I have been trying to do journalism all the time, because it keeps me in touch with the real world.
8、我认为,别的作家有了一个想法,一种观念,就能写出一本书来。我总是先得有一个形象。《礼拜二午睡时刻》我认为是我最好的短篇小说,它是我在一个荒凉的镇子上看到一个身穿丧服、手打黑伞的女人领着一个也穿着丧服的小姑娘在火辣辣的骄阳下奔走之后写成的。《枯枝败叶》是一个老头儿带着孙子去参加葬礼。《没有人给他写信的上校》的成书原因是基于一个人在巴兰基利亚闹市码头等候渡船的形象。那人沉默不语,心急如焚。几年之后,我在巴黎等一封来信,也许是一张汇票,也是那么焦急不安,跟我记忆中的那个人一模一样。
I think other writers have an idea and an idea to write a book. I always have to have an image first. "Tuesday nap" I think is my best short story. It was written by a woman in a desolate town, wearing a mourning dress, a woman with a black umbrella, and a little girl in the hot hot sun, who was also wearing a mourning suit. "Withered leaves and fallen leaves" is an old man bringing his grandson to the funeral. The reason why the colonel is not written to him is based on the image of a man waiting for a ferry at the terminal of balajera. The man was silent and anxious. A few years later, I wrote a letter in Paris, perhaps a draft, which was so anxious and uneasy, just like the one I remember.
9、上午在一个荒岛,晚上在一座大城市。上午,我需要安静;晚上,我得喝点儿酒,跟至亲好友聊聊天。我总感到,必须跟街头巷尾的人们保持联系,及时了解当前情况。我这里所说的和威廉·福克纳的意思是一致的。听说,作家最完美的家是烟花柳巷,上午寂静无声,入夜欢声笑语。
in the morning in a desert island, in a big city in the evening. In the morning, I need to be quiet; in the evening, I have to drink some wine to chat with my close friends. I always feel that I must keep in touch with people in the streets and lanes and get to know the current situation in time. What I am talking about here is consistent with William Faulkner's meaning. I heard that the most perfect home for a writer is fireworks, a quiet morning and laughter at night.
10、随风而逝分享到微信人不是从娘胎里出来就一成不变的,相反,生活会逼迫他一次又一次地脱胎换骨。
to share with the wind, to WeChat people is not invariable from the birth of a womb. On the contrary, life will force him to be reborn again and again.
11、老年的光阴不是水平的激流,而是无底的地下蓄水池,记忆力就从那里排走了。
old age is not a level current, but a bottomless underground reservoir, where memory is drained away.
12、心灵的爱情在腰部以上,肉体的爱情在腰部往下。
the love of the heart is above the waist, and the love of the body goes down the waist.
13、我不想跟任何人争名夺利。这和登山运动员一样,冒着生命危险攀登高峰,但是一旦登了上来,下一步该怎么办呢?要下去,或者争取明智地、尽量体面地下去。
I don't want to win and win with anyone. This is like climbing a mountaineer, risking his life to climb the peak, but once he comes up, what should he do next? Go down, or try to be wise and try to be as decent as possible.
14、我不戴帽子,免得要在别人面前摘下来。
I don't wear a hat, so I don't want to pick it off in front of others.
15、每段婚姻难免都会遇到一方出轨这样的难题,处理这种问题总是非常考验另一方的智慧和胆量。
every marriage will inevitably encounter a problem such as a derailment. Handling this kind of problem always tests the wisdom and courage of the other side.
16、灵感这个词已经给浪漫主义作家搞得声名狼藉。我认为,灵感既不是一种才能,也不是一种天赋,而是作家坚忍不拔的精神和精湛的技巧为他们所努力要表达的主题做出的一种和解。当一个人想写点东西的时候,那么这个人和他要表达的主题之间就会产生一种互相制约的紧张关系,因为写作的人要设法探究主题,而主题则力图设置种种障碍。有时候,一切障碍会一扫而光,一切矛盾会迎刃而解,会发生过去梦想不到的许多事情。这时候,你才会感到,写作是人生最美好的事情。这就是我所认为的灵感。
the word "inspiration" has made a notorious reputation for romantic writers. I believe that inspiration is neither a talent nor a talent, but a kind of reconciliation that the writer's perseverance and exquisite skill make for the subject they are trying to express. When a person wants to write something, the person and the subject that he wants to express will have a constraint of tension, because the writer tries to explore the subject, and the subject tries to set up various obstacles. Sometimes, all obstacles will be swept away, all contradictions will be solved, and many things will never happen in the past. At this time, you will feel that writing is the best thing in life. This is the inspiration I think.
17、如果上帝赏我一段生命,我会简单装束,伏在阳光下,袒露的不仅是身体,还有我的魂灵。
if God gives me a life, I will simply dress up and hide in the sunlight, exposing not only the body, but also my soul.
18、爱情,首先是一种本能,要么生下来就会,要么永远都不会。
love, first of all, is an instinct, either born or never.
19、你和死亡好象隔着什么在看,没有什么感受,你的父母挡在你们中间,等到你的父母过世了,你才会直面这些东西,不然你看到的死亡是很抽象的,你不知道。亲戚,朋友,邻居,隔代,他们去世对你的压力不是那么直接,父母是隔在你和死亡之间的一道帘子,把你挡了一下,你最亲密的人会影响你的生死观。
you and death seem to have nothing to see, no feeling, your parents in the middle of you, when your parents passed away, you will face these things, or you see the death is very abstract, you do not know. Relatives, friends, neighbors, generations, their death is not so direct to you, parents are separated by a curtain between you and death, to keep you out, and your closest person will affect your life and death.
20、任何年龄段的女人都有她在那个年龄阶段所呈现出来的无法复刻的美。她因年龄而减损的,又因性格而弥补回来,更因勤劳赢得了更多。
women of any age have the beauty that she can not reproduce at that age. She has been reduced by age and recompensed for her character, and has won more by diligence.
21、眼泪是假的,悲哀是真的,一千年以后没有你也没有我。
tears are false, sad is true, one thousand years later without you, there is no me.
22、《百年孤独》我不到两年就写完了。不过,在我坐在打字机旁动手之前,我花了十五六年来构思这部小说。
In a hundred years alone, I finished writing in less than two years. But before I sat by the typewriter, it took me fifteen or six years to conceive of the novel.
23、你越是拥有权力,你就越是难以知道谁在对你撒谎而谁没有。当你到达绝对的权力,你和现实就没有了联系,而这是孤独所能有的最坏的种类。
the more power you have, the harder it is for you to know who is lying to you and who is not. When you reach absolute power, you have no connection with reality, and this is the worst kind of loneliness you can have.
24、无论走到哪里,都应该记住,过去都是假的,回忆是一条没有尽头的路,一切以往的春天都不复存在,就连那最坚韧而又狂乱的爱情归根结底也不过是一种转瞬即逝的现实。
no matter where to go, should remember, the past is false, memory is an endless road, all the past spring no longer exist, even the most tenacious and wild love, in the final analysis, is just a fleeting reality.
25、用他人的标准解释我们的现实,只会让我们变得越来越陌生、越来越拘束、越来越孤独。
interpreting our reality with other people's standards will only make us more and more unfamiliar, more and more restricted and more lonely.
26、我在开始写作的时候,刚刚探索到写作的奥秘,心情欣喜愉快,几乎没有想到自己要负有什么责任。我记得,那时候,每天凌晨两三点钟,我干完报社的工作,还能写上四页,五页,甚至十页书。有时候一口气就写完一个短篇小说。
when I started writing, I just explored the mystery of writing and felt happy and joyful. I hardly thought of what responsibility I had to bear. I remember, at that time, at two or three in the morning, when I finished the work of the newspaper, I could write four pages, five pages, or even ten pages of books. Sometimes a short story is written at one breath.
27、我总是相信存在着一种特殊的精神状态,在那种状态下你可以写得轻松自如,思如泉涌。所有的借口,诸如你只能在家里写作之类,都消失了。当你找到了正确的主题以及处理它的正确的方式,那种时刻和那种精神状态似乎就到来了。而它也只能成为你真正喜欢的东西。
I always believe that there is a special mental state. In that state, you can write freely and think freely. All excuses, such as writing at home and so on, disappear. When you find the right theme and the right way to deal with it, that moment and mental state seem to be coming. And it can only be what you really like.
28、我去旅行,是因为我决定了要去,并不是因为对风景的兴趣。
I travel because I decided to go, not because of the interest in scenery.
29、当一个女人决定和一个男人睡觉时,就没有她跃不过去的围墙,没有她推不倒的堡垒,也没有她抛不下的道德顾虑,事实上没有能管得住她的上帝。谨慎做这样的决定。
when a woman decides to sleep with a man, there is no wall that she can't jump out, the fortress she pushes out, and the moral scruples she can't throw away. In fact, she is not able to hold her God. Be careful to make such a decision.
30、文学除了是木工活,什么也不是。两者都是在与现实打交道,素材正如木料一样坚硬。两者都充满把戏和技巧。基本上是很少有魔术,倒包含许多艰苦的活计。
literature is nothing but carpentry. Both are dealing with reality, and material is as hard as wood. Both are full of tricks and skills. Basically, there are very few magic tricks that involve a lot of hard work.
31、守信是一项财宝,不应该随意虚掷。
keeping faith is a treasure and should not be thrown at will.
32、生活是人们发明出来的再美妙不过的东西了。
life is a wonderful thing that people have invented.
33、新鞋你要是不穿,永远不会合脚。
If you don't wear new shoes, you will never fit.
34、永远说你感到的,做你想到的吧!如果我知道今天是我最后一次看你入睡,我会热烈地拥抱你,祈求上帝守护你的灵魂。如果我知道这是最后一次看你离开家门,我会给你一个拥抱一个吻,然后重新叫住你,再度拥抱亲吻。如果我知道这是最后一次听到你的声音,我会录下你的每个字句,以便可以一遍又一遍永无穷尽地倾听。如果我知道这是看到你的最后几分钟,我会说"我爱你",而不是傻傻地以为你早已知道。
Always say what you feel, do what you think about! If I knew that today is the last time I saw you fall asleep, I would hug you warmly, and pray God to protect your soul. If I knew this was the last time I saw you leave home, I would give you a hug and a kiss, and then call you again, hug and kiss again. If I knew it was the last time I heard your voice, I would record every word of yours so that I could listen to it again and again. If I know this is the last few minutes to see you, I will say "I love you" instead of foolishly assuming that you already know.
35、其实,一切早已安排妥当,命中注定那些事情一件接着一件发生,最后把我们引领到了今天这个礼拜三。马孔多的礼拜三,正是埋葬魔鬼的好日子。
in fact, everything has been arranged properly, and fate has been destined to happen one by one, and finally led us to this Wednesday. Macondo's Wednesday is a good day to bury the devil.
36、世俗的好处:安全感、和谐和幸福,这些东西一旦相加,或许看似爱情,也几乎等于爱情。但它们终究不是爱情。用一块没有泪水的海绵将有关他的记忆彻底抹掉,让他在她记忆中所占据的那块空间里长出一片罂粟花。
the secular advantages: security, harmony and happiness. Once these things add together, it may seem like love is almost equal to love. But they are not love in the end. With a sponge without tears, erase his memory thoroughly, and let him grow a poppy flower in the space occupied by her memory.
37、因为我正在写的作品是我私生活的一部分。老实说,我对那些在采访时大谈其未来作品情节的作家倒感到有点可怜。因为这证明,他们的事情进展得并不顺利,他们想把在小说创作中解决不了的问题拿到报刊上来解决,以求自我安慰。
because the works I am writing are part of my private life. To be honest, I feel a little pitiful to those writers who talk about their future works in interviews. Because it proves that their things are not going well, they want to solve the problems that can't be solved in the novel, and try to comfort themselves.
38、一个人要是不得不说假话,那真是到了山穷水尽的地步了。在说假话之前,有没有想到是不是真的到了山穷水尽的地步了呢?
if a person has to say something falsehood, he is at the end of his life. Before telling falsehood, did you think that it was really at the end of the day?
39、我是偶然开始写作的,也许只是为了向一位朋友表明,我这一代人是能够出作家的。从此,我就爱上了写作,而且欲罢不能;后来,我竟然认为,除了写作,世界上没有任何事务能使我更加喜爱。
I started writing by accident, perhaps just to show to a friend that my generation can produce writers. From then on, I fell in love with writing, and I couldn't stop it. Later, I thought, in addition to writing, nothing in the world could make me more fond of it.
40、如果不能确知命运指派给我们怎样的角色和使命,我们就无法继续活下去。
if we do not know what role and mission the fate assigns to us, we will not be able to continue to live.
41、过去都是假的,回忆是一条没有归途的路,以往的一切春天都无法复原,即使最狂乱且坚韧的爱情,归根结底也不过是一种瞬息即逝的现实,唯有孤独永恒。
the past is a false, memory is a way of no return, all the past spring can not be restored, even the most wild and tough love, in the final analysis, is just a fleeting reality, only loneliness and eternity.
42、他还太年轻,尚不知道回忆总是会抹去坏的,夸大好的,也正是由于这种玄妙,我们才得以承担过去的重负。
he is too young to know that memories will always erase the bad and exaggerate, and it is precisely because of this mystery that we can shoulder the burden of the past.
43、生活规律得仿佛生了锈一般,既让人轻蔑,又让人害怕,但同时也是一种保护,让他意识不到时间的流逝。
the law of life seems to be rusty. It is both a scorn and a fear, but it is also a kind of protection, which makes him unable to realize the passage of time.
44、诚实的生活方式其实是按照自己身体的意愿行事,饿的时候才吃饭,爱的时候不必撒谎,睡觉的时候也不用为了逃避可耻的爱情程式而装睡,自己终于成了整张床的主人,它的全部都归自己独享。
the honest way of life is in fact in accordance with the wishes of his own body, hungry when eating, when love does not have to lie, sleep time does not need to escape the shameful love program and sleep, and finally become the whole bed of the owner, all of which belong to their own.
45、永远有一个明天,生活给我们另一个机会将事情做好,可是如果我搞错了,今天就是我们所剩的全部,我会对你说我多么爱你,我永远不会忘记你。
always have a tomorrow, life gives us another opportunity to do things well, but if I make a mistake, today is all we have, I will tell you how much I love you, I will never forget you.
46、买下一张永久车票,登上一列永无终点的火车。()
buy a Zhang Yongjiu ticket and climb a train that never ends. ()
47、我先把一张稿纸装进打字机……是的,我用电动打字机。如果出了错,对打的字不太满意或者只是因为打错了字,不管是由于我自己的坏习惯、癖好还是由于过分审慎小心,我就把稿纸撤下来,换上一张新的。写一篇十二页的短篇小说,我有时要用五百张稿纸。这就是说,我有个怪脾气:我认为打字错误等于创作错误,这个毛病我改不了。
I first put a piece of paper into a typewriter... Yes, I use an electric typewriter. If it is wrong, not very satisfied with the word, or just because of the wrong word, whether it is because of my own bad habits, habit, or due to excessive prudence, I will withdraw the paper and replace it with a new one. Write a twelve page short story. I sometimes use five hundred sheets of manuscript paper. That is to say, I have a weird temper: I think typing errors are equal to creative errors.
48、他没有察觉到时光在家里造成的细微而又令人心碎的破坏,这么长日子外出之后,对任何一个有着清晰记忆的人来说,这种破坏都会觉得是一种灾难。还等什么呢?时间都过去了,话是这么说,但不至于那么快。无论走到哪里,都应该记住,过去都是假的,回忆是一条没有尽头的路,一切以往的春天都一去不复存在,就连那最坚韧而又狂乱的爱情归根结底也不过是一种转瞬即逝的现实!
he was not aware of the subtle and heartbreaking destruction of time at home. After such a long trip, it would be a disaster for anyone with a clear memory. What are you waiting for? The time has passed, that is to say, but not so fast. Wherever you go, remember, the past is false, memory is an endless road, all the past spring is gone, even the most tenacious and wild love in the final analysis is just a fleeting reality!
49、上帝呀,如果我有一颗心,我会将仇恨写在冰上,然后期待太阳的升起;我会用凡高的梦在星星上画一首贝内德第的诗,而塞莱特的歌会是将是我献给月亮的小夜曲。我会用泪水浇灌玫瑰,以此体味花刺的痛苦和花瓣的亲吻……
God, if I have a heart, I will write hatred on the ice and look forward to the rising of the sun; I will use the dream of Van Gogh to draw a Benede's poem on the stars, and Selet's song will be the serenade I dedicate to the moon. I will irrigate the roses with tears, so as to savour the pain of the thorns and the kiss of petals.
