第3章 打招呼(2)

They said of him that it was the most peaceful face ever seen there. What passed through Sydney Carton’s mind as he walked those last steps to his death? Perhaps he saw into the future...

“I see Barsad, Defarge, the judges, all dying under this terrible machine. I see a beautiful city being built in this terrible place. I see that new people will live here, in real freedom. I see the lives for whom I give my life, happy and peaceful in that England which I shall never see again. I see Lucie when she is old, crying for me on this day every year, and I know that she and her husband remember me until their deaths. I see their son, who has my name, now a man. I see him become a famous lawyer and make my name famous by his work. I hear him tell his son my story.

It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far far better rest than I go to, than I have ever known.”

人们谈论他时说他的脸是在那种地方见过的最平静的脸。当西德尼?卡登迈着最后的步伐向死亡走去时,他的脑海中想到了什么呢?也许他看到了未来……

“我看到巴萨德、德法热、法官们都在这个可怕的机器下面死去。我看见一个美丽的城市正在这片可怕的土地上建立起来。我看到新一代的人民将在真正的自由中生活。我看到我为之付出生命的人们,他们幸福安宁的生活在我再也见不到的英国。我看见路西年老的时候,每一年的这一天都会为我哭泣,我知道她和她的丈夫会一直到死都记着我。我看见他们的儿子,有着和我一样的名字,现在长成了一个男人。我看见他成了一位著名的律师并通过他的工作而使我扬名四方。我听见他给他的儿子讲起我的故事。

我做的是一件很好的事,远远好过我所做的所有的事。它将是一个很好的长眠,远比我所知道的要好。”

A heart well worth winning, and well won. A heart that, once won, goes through fire and water for the winner, and never changes, and is never daunted.

值得去赢得和被赢得是这样一颗心:这颗心一旦赢得,可上刀山,可下火海,永远不变,无所畏惧。

The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.

准确地说,建设性和创造性之间的区别是这样:建造的事物只能建好后被人所爱;而创造的事物尚未问世就受人喜爱。

To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.

对所爱的人隐瞒任何事情,都不是我的本性。既然我的心房都已经打开,嘴巴就不能关上。
