Bertrand Russell
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love ,the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.
I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy -- ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it , next, because it relieves loneliness-- that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world , into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what -- at last -- I have found.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much I have achieved.
Love and knowlidge , so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of lonelines, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.
This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.
我為什麼活著
羅素
三股簡單而非凡強烈的激情一直控制著我的一生：對愛的渴望，對知識的追求和對人類苦難不堪忍受的憐憫。這三股激情，象陣陣巨風，把我在痛苦的海洋的路途中吹得任意東西，變動無常，直吹到了絕望的邊緣。
我尋求愛，首先是因為它帶來了欣喜若狂之情——欣喜若狂使人如此心醉神迷，我常常願意犧牲我的全部餘生來換取幾小時這樣的歡樂。我尋求愛，其次是因為它能解除寂寞——那種可怕的寂寞，如同一個人毛發悚然地從這世界的邊緣探望令人戰栗的死氣沉沉的無底深淵。我尋求愛，最後是因為在愛的結合中我看到了聖徒們和詩人們所想像的預言中的天堂景象的神秘雛型。這就是我所尋求的東西，雖然它也許似乎是人生所難以得到的美好事物，但這就是——最後——我終於找到的東西。
我懷著同樣的激情尋求知識。我希望理解人們的心。我希望知道星星為什麼發光。我力圖領悟畢達哥拉斯的才能，他的才能使數字支配著不斷變動的事物。在這方面，我只達到了一小部分，並不很多。
愛和知識，盡其可能，遠遠地把人引向九天之上。倡憐憫總是把我帶回到地面上來。痛苦的呼號的回聲在我心裡回盪。受飢挨餓的兒童，在壓迫者折磨下受苦受難的人們，無依無靠而成為自己子女嫌惡的負擔的老人，以及整個孤苦寂寞的世界，窮困與痛苦都在嘲弄著人生，使人們不能過應有的美好生活。我渴望減輕災難禍害，但是我力不從心，我自己也在受苦。
這就是我的一生。我覺得我的一生過得很值得。如果我還有機會的話，我將樂意再度過這樣的一生。

This is the time when we can begin to wear lighter and more brightly colored clothes and go outdoors more often. Smaller children like to bring their kites out to the spacious square. Also I enjoy going back to the village on this holiday after being in the city for the winter months.

The park also has many bright fall flowers; sometimes I see a small squirrel coming down from the tree to hunt for food on the ground. On the weekends, I sometimes like to fly my kite. Usually on the street corners you can see street peddlers selling warm baked sweet potatoes. This is a nice time of the year.
