To be or not to be
--Of life
To be or not to be, that’s the question; to succeed or to give up, that’s the point. 去或者不去,这是个问题;成功或放弃,这才是问题的关键。
What’s the meaning of life? It’s various according to individual’s willing. Most of us want to be successful in a certain degree and take this as the meaning of life. There are lots if obstacles in the way towards to success. So, let’s back to the original stage. We’re the normal. If we can’t be successful, then we’ll be the loser considered the worst situation. Some may can’t bear this kind of feeling and want to give up. Then, here one more question arising. How should we define success? Is it anyone who makes a great sum of money or win an honorable fame? Success is a kind of experience praised by public; failure is a kind of experience undesirable to public. That’s the major distinct between success and failure. From my point of view, no matter what kind of results we may get, we all can be called being successful because we all get the valuable experience. Do not feel ashamed of being a loser. Keep in mind that once being a loser and later forever being a winner. Believe in yourself. That’s the key point I want to emphasize. The meaning of life is simple to explain since success is an attitude. Life itself is meaningless. We human beings add our subjective consciousnesses to life and want it to become meaningful. Just make sure what are we chasing for. Those who commit suicide surely can’t get what they want or even don’t know what they want. Whether we can be free if we are dead? I wish it would be, but we don’t know about that. Since dying isn’t so fearful to us, is there anything more dangerous than that? Then turn our eyes once again in this world and we’ll find it seems more colorful than we think it used to be.
生活的意义是什么?这是不同的根据个人的意愿。我们大多数人想成功在某种程度上,认为这是生命的意义。有很多的障碍,对是否成功。因此,让我们回到最初的阶段。我们是正常的。如果我们不能成功,然后我们将成为失败者认为最糟糕的情况。有些人可能受不了这种感觉,想放弃。然后,这一个问题产生。我们应该如何定义成功?是谁使一个伟大的钱或赢一个光荣的名声吗?成功是一种经验的赞扬由公共;失败是一种经验的不受欢迎的公众。这是重要的成功与失败之间的不同。从我的观点来看,不管什么样的结果我们可以得到,我们都可以被称为是成功的,因为我们都得到了宝贵的经验。不觉得羞耻的失败者。记住,一旦成为一个失败者,后来成为一个赢家永远。相信自己。这是我要强调的重点。生命的意义是简单的解释因为成功是一种态度。生活本身是没有意义的。我们人类主观意识,加上我们的生命和希望它变得有意义。只要确保我们追求的是什么。那些自杀的人肯定不能得到他们想要的东西,甚至不知道他们想要什么。我们是否可以免费的如果我们死了吗?我希望是,但我们不知道。因为死亡并不是那么可怕的对我们来说,还有什么比这更危险的呢?然后把我们的眼睛再一次在这个世界上,我们会发现它似乎比我们想象的更加多姿多彩的过去。
So, here we can draw a conclusion: life itself is not fearful but the philosophy; difficulties are not hard but the unknown world. Try our best to run for the things we are desired of and protect it till the end of our life
所以,在这里,我们可以得出一个结论:生活本身并不可怕,但哲学;困难不是困难但未知的世界。尽力跑的事情我们需要和保护它直到生命的尽头。.
Outside the Bible, these six words are the most famous in all the literature of the world. They were spoken by Hamlet when he was thinking aloud, and they are the most famous words in Shakespeare because Hamlet was speaking not only for himself but also for every thinking man and woman. To be or not to be, to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcely. A philosopher once wanted to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionally. He answered it by saying: "I think, therefore am."

But the best definition of existence ever saw did another philosopher who said: "To be is to be in relations." If this true, then the more relations a living thing has, the more it is alive. To live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity of our relations. Unfortunately we are so constituted that we get to love our routine. But apart from our regular occupation how much are we alive? If you are interested only in your regular occupation, you are alive only to that extent. So far as other things are concerned--poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports, unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs--you are dead.

Contrariwise, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest--even more, a new accomplishment--you increase your power of life. No one who is deeply interested in a large variety of subjects can remain unhappy; the real pessimist is the person who has lost interest.

Bacon said that a man dies as often as he loses a friend. But we gain new life by contacts, new friends. What is supremely true of living objects is only less true of ideas, which are also alive. Where your thoughts are, there will your live be also. If your thoughts are confined only to your business, only to your physical welfare, only to the narrow circle of the town in which you live, then you live in a narrow cir-conscribed life. But if you are interested in what is going on in China, then you are living in China~ if you’re interested in the characters of a good novel, then you are living with those highly interesting people, if you listen intently to fine music, you are away from your immediate surroundings and living in a world of passion and imagination.

To be or not to be--to live intensely and richly, merely to exist, that depends on ourselves. Let widen and intensify our relations. While we live, let live!

译文：

生存还是毁灭

“生存还是毁灭。”如果把《圣经》除外，这六个字便是整个世界文学中最有名的六个字了。这六个字是哈姆雷特一次喃喃自语时说的，而这六个字也就成了莎士比亚作品中最有名的几个字了，因为这里哈姆雷特不仅道出了他自己的心声，同时也代表了一切有思想的男男女女。是活还是不活——是要生活还是不要生活，是要生活得丰满充实，兴致勃勃，还是只是活得枯燥委琐，贫乏无味。一位哲人一次曾想弄清他自己是否是在活着，这个问题我们每个人也大可不时地问问我们自己。这位哲学家对此的答案是： “我思故我在。”

但是关于生存我所见过的一条最好的定义却是另一位哲学家下的：“生活即是联系。”如果这话不假的话，那么一个有生命者的联系越多，它也就越有生气。所谓要活得丰富充实也即是要扩大和加强我们的各种联系。不幸的是，我们往往会因为天性不够丰厚而容易陷入自己的陈规旧套。试问除去我们的日常工作，我们的真正生活又有多少?如果你只是对你的日常工作才有兴趣，那你的生趣也就很有限了。至于在其它事物方面，比如诗歌、散文、音乐、美术、体育、无私的友谊、政治与国际事务，等等——你只是死人一个。

但反过来说，每当你获得一种新的兴趣——甚至一项新的造诣——你就增长了你的生活本领。一个能对许许多多事物都深感兴趣的人是不可能总不愉快的，真正的悲观者只能是那些丧失兴趣的人。

培根曾讲过，一个人失去朋友即是死亡。但是凭着交往，凭着新朋，我们就能获得再生。这条对于活人可谓千真万确的道理在一定程度上也完全适用于人的思想，它们也都是活的。你的思想所在，你的生命便也在那里。如果你的思想不出你的业务范围，不出你的物质利益，不出你所在城镇的狭隘圈子，那么你的一生便也只是多方受着局限的狭隘的一生。但是如果你对当前中国那里所发生的种种感到兴趣，那么你便可说也活在中国；如果你对一本佳妙小说中的人物感到兴趣，你便是活在一批极有趣的人们中间；如果你能全神贯注地听点好的音乐，你就会超脱出你的周围环境而活在一个充满激情与想象的神奇世界之中。

生存还是毁灭——活得热烈活得丰富，还是只是简单存在，这就全在我们自己。但愿我们都能不断扩展和增强我们的各种联系。只要一天我们活着，就要一天是在活着。

To be, or not to be-that is the question. This is one of the most famous quotations in world literature and the best-known of the play Hamlet. The soliloquy, spoken in the play by Prince Hamlet, best shows the bitterness and conflict in Hamlet’s heart.
是生存还是毁灭,是个问题。这是其中一个最著名的报价在世界文学和最著名的扮演哈姆雷特。的独白,口语在剧中哈姆雷特王子,最好的展示了痛苦和冲突在哈姆雷特的心。
First off, Shakespeare presented the two options: “to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune” represents the option—to be, and “to take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them” represent the option—not to be. Here, taking arms against a sea of troubles is suicide. If death can prevent us from all the troubles, then it is the consummation to be wished. But we don’t know what awaits us after death. This makes people coward.
首先,莎士比亚展示了两个选项:“遭受矢石的飞来横祸”代表选项是,“拿起武器反抗人世的无涯的苦难,通过反对结束他们”代表选项没有被。在这里,把武器面对苦海是自杀。如果死亡可以阻止我们所有的问题,那么它是完善的是希望。但是我们不知道死后前方等待我们的是什么。这使得人们懦夫。
The fear of unknown makes people coward. people would rather suffer “the whips and scorns of time, the oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, the pangs of despis'd love, the law's delay, the insolence of office, and the spurns that patient merit of the unworthy takes”. Shakespeare expressed in Hamlet’s voice his depiction of the disappointing and miserable world.
未知的恐惧让人懦夫。人们宁愿受“人世的鞭挞和讥嘲、压迫者的错,骄傲人的侮辱,被亲蔑的爱情的惨痛、法律的迁延、的横暴,官吏病人值得不值得的代价”。莎士比亚在哈姆雷特的声音表达了他的失望和痛苦描写世界。
At the end, Shakespeare noted that “conscience does make cowards of us all” and make us “lose the name of action”, which is also the mirror of Hamlet’s mind, showing his irresolution and scrupulosity.
最后,莎士比亚说,“良心确实使我们所有人都变成胆小鬼”,让我们“失去了行动的意义”,这也是哈姆雷特的心灵的镜子,显示他的优柔寡断和顾虑。
To my understanding, the essential purport of this soliloquy is that the state is incurable and it should better to be rebuilt. More importantly, action should not be held up by endless conscience.
我的理解,基本意义的独白是国家是不治之症,而且它应该更好的重建。更重要的是,行动不应受到无尽的良心。

Original:
Life is long and difficult, and making choices is unavoidable, then we often ask ourselves one question: to be, or not to be.
Some people choose to evade the question by indulging themselves in sex, booze and gambling or choosing to die. But all these are useless. The question remains there unsolved.
人生是漫长而艰难的,做选择是不可避免的,那么我们经常问自己一个问题:是,或者不是。
一些人选择逃避问题由于纵容自己在性别、喝酒、赌博或选择死。但所有的这些都是无用的。问题仍然存在未解决的。
Some people are trapped by this question. They keep asking themselves day and night, weigh the two sides repeatedly, but dare not to make the final choice, because no matter what they choose, the consequence will be severe.
In this matter, I quite agree with Lu Xun who once said: a true brave fighter dares to face the dismal life and dare to face up to the blood dripping.
有些人被困于这个问题。他们日夜不停的问自己,权衡双方反复,但不敢做出最后的选择,因为无论他们怎么选择,后果将是严重的。
这件事,我很赞同鲁迅曾经说过:一个真正的勇敢战士敢于面对惨淡的人生,敢于正视血滴。
Giving too much consideration and having too many worries could kill our spirits, making us to be a coward. And if we take the first step forward, we may find it is not as difficult as we thought.
We do make wrong choice and fail at times, but failure sometimes tells us more.
The way ahead is long without ending, yet I am not afraid. The thing is not what to choose, but be brave to choose.
给予太多的考虑和有太多的担忧可能会杀了我们的精神,使我们成为一个懦夫。如果我们迈出第一步,我们会发现它并不像我们想象的那样困难。
我们做错误的选择和失败的时候,但失败有时告诉我们更多。
前方的路是漫长的没有结局的,但是我不害怕。问题是没有什么选择,但要勇敢的选择。
