Wealth is like running water, and giving like digging a well.

Many years ago I discovered the Principle of Giving almost by accident.

多年以前,我几乎是纯属意外地发现了“布施定律”的运作.

In other words we away what we most wanted: Love.

换句话说,我们在布施我们最需要的东西 —— 爱.

But a gift given where, lord, bears great fruit?

那麽,世尊! 该到何处布施才能产生大果报 呢 ?

The phrase means to beg, to ask for a handout.

这个说法的意思是乞求或请求别人施舍.

My mum was very proud. She wouldn't accept charity.

母亲自尊心很强，不会接受施舍。

He was totally flattened by her sarcasm.

她说的挖苦话使他无地自容.

Your behavior is extremely brazen.

你的这种做法真是无耻之尤,让人不齿.

Much like number 1 , I don't want to embarrass myself . I'm better off moving on.

你的文章有些东西我不太明白,我得先消化一下. 跟上一条类似, 我不想不懂装懂丢人现眼,所以闪先.

They spent the next 24 years together, but in the mid-19 th century this was considered scandalous.

其后24年一直生活在一起.在19世纪中叶这可是丢人现眼的事.

Have you been making a spectacle of yourself?

你一直在这么丢人现眼 吗 ?

She wasn't going to make a spectacle of herself by bursting into tears in the street.

她不会丢人现眼地在街上哭的.

Now we are ruined, and I shan't live to see the end of your disgrace.

这下子完了, 我也不想再活着看你丢人现眼了.

She was a spectacle , sure enough.

毫无疑问,她是丢人现眼了.

A quick decision cannot be achieved simply by wanting it, but requires many specific conditions.

速决战不是心里想要如此做就做得成功的,还须加上许多具体的条件.

Unless these requirements satisfied , it is impossible achieve quick decision in a campaign or battle.

不解决这些条件,而求战役或战斗的速决, 是不可能的.

Unless these rcquirements are satisfied, it is impossible to achieve quick decision in a battle.

除非这些条件得到满足, 否则要打速决战是不可能的.

In general, to achieve quick decision , we should attack a moving and not a stationary enemy.

为了实行速决,一般应不打驻止中之敌,而打运动中之敌.

While quick decision is the general principle, we must oppose undue impatience.

但在一般的速决原则之下, 反对不正当的急躁性是必要的.

And shall open the door and flee and shall not wait.

说完了,就开门逃跑,不要迟延.

I hastened and did not delay To keep Your commandments.

诗119:60我急忙遵守你的命令、不迟延.
