年輕人不相信自己會(huì)死。這是我哥哥的話，可算得一句妙語(yǔ)。青春有一種永生之感――它能彌補(bǔ)一切。人在青年時(shí)代好像一尊永生的神明。誠(chéng)然，生命的一半已以消逝，但蘊(yùn)藏著不盡財(cái)富的另一半還有所保留，我們對(duì)它也抱著無(wú)窮的希望和幻想。未來(lái)的時(shí)代完全屬于我們。

參考譯文：

    No young man believes he shall ever die. It was a saying of my brother’s, and a fine one. There is a feeling of Eternity in youth, which makes us amend for everything. To be young is to be as one of the Immortal Gods. One half of time indeed is flown-the other half remains in store for us with all its countless treasures; for there is no line drawn, and we see no limit to our hopes and wishes. We make the coming age our own.
