雙語智慧書·高貴的品質(zhì)

296．高貴的品質(zhì)
　　高貴的品質(zhì)。高貴的品質(zhì)成就高貴的人。一個品質(zhì)高貴之人比眾多平庸之徒更有價值。有人什么東西都要用最好的，哪怕是家用器具。偉大的人更應(yīng)使其靈魂盡可能偉大。上帝的一切都是永恒而無限的，英雄的一切也應(yīng)偉大而莊嚴(yán)，這樣，他的所有言行才顯得無比威嚴(yán)。


296．Noble qualities
　Noble qualities. Noble qualities make noblemen: a single one of them is worth more than a multitude of mediocre ones. There was once a man who made all his belongings, even his household utensils, as great as possible. How much more ought a great man see that the qualities of his soul are as great as possible. In God all is eternal and infinite, so in a hero everything should be great and majestic, so that all his deeds, nay, all his words, should he pervaded by a transcendent majesty.
