3. 当人心最软弱的时候，爱情最容易入侵，那就是当人春风得意、忘乎所以和处境窘困孤独凄零的时候，虽然后者未必能得到爱情。人在这样的时候，最急于跳入爱情的火焰中。由此可见，“爱情”实在是“愚蠢”的儿子。但有一些人，即使心中有了爱，仍能约束它，使它不妨碍重大的事业。因为爱情一旦干扰情绪，就会阻碍人坚定地奔向既定的目标。

3. Love is most easily invasive when the human heart is at its weakest, that is, when one is in high spirits, oblivious to oneself, and in a difficult and lonely situation, although the latter is not necessarily conducive to receiving love. In such times, people are most eager to plunge into the flames of love. From this we can see that "love" is indeed the son of "foolishness." However, there are some people who, even after falling in love, can still control it and ensure that it does not hinder their major endeavors. Because once love disrupts one's emotions, it can hinder one's firm pursuit of established goals.

17. 不仅如此，精神上的各种缺陷，都可以通过求知来改善----正如身体上的缺陷，可以通过运动为改善一样。例如打球有利于腰肾，射箭可扩胸利肺，散步则有助于消化，骑术使人反应敏捷，等等。同样，一个思维不集中的人，他可以研习数学，因为数学稍不仔细就去出错。缺乏分析判断力的人，他可以研习经院哲学，因为这门学问最讲究繁琐辩证。不善于推理的人，可以研习法律学，如此等等。这种种头脑上的缺陷，可可以通过求知来疗治。

17. Not only that, various spiritual deficiencies can be improved through the pursuit of knowledge — just as physical deficiencies can be improved through exercise. For example, playing ball benefits the kidneys and the lower back, archery expands the chest and benefits the lungs, walking aids digestion, horseback riding makes one's reactions quick, and so on. Similarly, a person who lacks concentration can study mathematics, as it is prone to errors if not careful. A person who lacks analytical and judgment skills can study scholastic philosophy, as this field is most concerned with intricate dialectics. A person who is not good at reasoning can study law, and so on. These various intellectual deficiencies can all be treated through the pursuit of knowledge.

18. 有害的并不是掠过心田一晃而去的虚假，而是上文所说的沉积心底、安如磐石的虚假。

24. 因此，如果一个人还原做笔记，他的记忆力就必须强而可靠。如果一个人只愿孤独探索，他的头脑就必须格外锐利。如果有人不读书又想冒充博学多知，他就必定很狡黠，才能掩饰他的无知。

24. Therefore, if a person reduces to taking notes, his memory must be strong and reliable. If a person prefers to explore alone, his mind must be particularly sharp. If someone does not read yet wants to pretend to be learned and knowledgeable, he must be very cunning to disguise his ignorance.

25. 当你孤独寂寞时，阅读可以消遣。当你高谈阔论时，知识可供装饰。当你处世行事时，正确运用知识意味着力量。懂得事物因果的人是幸福的。有实际经验的人虽能够办理个别性的事务，但若要综观整体，运筹全局，却唯有掌握知识方能办到。

25. When you are lonely and melancholic, reading can be a form of entertainment. When you engage in eloquent discourse, knowledge can serve as ornamentation. When you navigate the world and act, the proper application of knowledge means strength. Those who understand the cause and effect of things are blessed. Those with practical experience can handle individual affairs, but to view the big picture and plan strategically, it is only through the mastery of knowledge that this can be achieved.

33. 过度的爱情追求，必然会降低人本身的价值。例如，只有在爱情中，才总是需要那种浮夸谄媚的词令。而在其它场合，同样的辞令只能招人耻笑。古人有一句名言：“最大的奉承，人总是留给自己的。”----只有对情人的奉承要算例外。因为甚至最骄傲的人，也甘愿在情人面前自轻自贱。所以古人说得好：“就是神在爱情中也难保持聪明。”情人的这种弱点不仅在外人眼中是明显的，就是在被追求者的眼中也会很明显----除非她（他）也在追求他（她）。所以，爱情的代价就是如此，不能得到回爱，就会得到一种深藏于心的轻蔑，这是一条永真的定律。

33. The pursuit of excessive love will inevitably devalue the person themselves. For instance, it is only in love that one always needs those extravagant flattery words. In other situations, the same words would only elicit laughter. The ancients had a famous saying: "The greatest flattery, people always reserve for themselves." --- Only the flattery towards a lover is an exception. Because even the most proud person would be willing to humiliate themselves in front of their lover. That's why the ancients said so well: "Even the gods find it hard to maintain wisdom in love." The lover's weakness is not only obvious to others, but also to the pursued, unless they (he or she) is pursuing him (her) as well. Therefore, the price of love is such, that if one cannot receive reciprocal love, they will receive a deep-seated disdain in their hearts. This is an eternal true law.

34. 一贯一往无前的人，一点停下脚步，就会自暴自弃，判若两人。

34. A person who always moves forward without hesitation, upon stopping for a moment, would be self-abasing and seem like a completely different person.

37. Education, logic, and rhetoric make people eloquent. In short, "knowledge can shape a person's character."

38. 美貌的人并不都有其他方面的才能。因为造物是吝啬的，他给了此就不再予以彼。所以许多容颜俊秀的人却一无作为，他们过于追求外形美而放弃了内在美。但这话也不全对，因为奥古斯都、菲斯帕斯、腓力普王、爱德华四世、阿尔西巴底斯、伊斯梅尔等，都既是大丈夫，又是美男子。

38. Not everyone who is handsome possesses talents in other areas. Because the Creator is sparing, He gives one thing and does not give the other. Therefore, many people with handsome faces have achieved nothing, as they have overemphasized physical beauty at the expense of inner beauty. However, this statement is not entirely correct, because Augustus, Phrasus, King Philip, Edward IV, Alcibiades, Ismail, and others were both great men and handsome.

41. 5一无所长的人总要嫉妒别人的长处，因为人的心灵不是靠自身的善滋养，就是以别人的恶为食。一个人缺此，必然要吞彼；一个人无望达到他人的长处，必然要压制别人的幸运来打个平手。

41. A person who has no talents always envies the strengths of others, because a person's soul is either nourished by its own goodness or fed on the evil of others.

47. Virtue is like a gem, beautiful when adorned with nature; and the beauty that is associated with virtue is undoubtedly the most beautiful. However, the beauty in question does not necessarily require a handsome appearance, but rather a dignified demeanor and an agreeable demeanor.

48. 使人丧失自己本身。至于其他方面的损失，古诗人早就告诉我们，那追求海伦的人，

48. Causes one to lose oneself. As for other forms of loss, ancient poets have long told us, those who pursue Helen,

49. 出生的幼崽总是其貌不扬，革新也莫不如此，因为它们都是时间的幼儿。

49. The offspring born are always unprepossessing, and the same is true of innovations, because they are all the children of time.

50. 求知可以作为消遣，可以作为装饰，也可以增长才干。

55. Since so many helpers surround the person who can overcome death, death may not be as terrifying. Vengeance conquers death, love scoffs at death, honor yearns for death, sorrow rushes towards death, and fear seizes death.

56. 爱情原来就是如此的，对方如果不以同样的爱情作报酬，那么就是暗地里在轻蔑你。

56. Love is originally like this; if the other person does not reciprocate with the same love, it is secretly an act of scorn towards you.

57. 14追求真理，是向他求爱求婚；认识真理，是与他相亲相依；相信真理，是用他尽兴尽欢，所以真理才是人性的支付至善。

57. Pursuing truth is to court him with love; recognizing truth is to be intimately close to him; believing in truth is to fully enjoy and revel in him, which is why truth is the ultimate good that is the payment of humanity.

60. 仔细考究起来，形体之美要胜于颜色之美，而优雅行为之美又胜于形体之美。最高的美是画家所无法表现的，因为它是难于直观的。这是一种奇妙的美。曾经有两位画家----阿皮雷斯和丢勒滑稽地认为，可以按照几何比例，或者通过摄取不同人身上最美的特点，用画合成一张最完美的人像。其实象这样画出来的美人，恐怕只有画家本人喜欢。美是不能制订规范的，创造它的常常是机遇，而不是公式。有许多脸型，就它的部分看并不优美，但作为整体却非常动人。

60. Upon careful consideration, the beauty of the form surpasses that of color, and the beauty of elegant behavior exceeds even that of the form. The highest beauty is something that painters cannot portray, as it is difficult to perceive directly. It is a wonderful beauty. There were once two painters, Apelles and Dürer, who humorously believed that they could create the most perfect portrait by blending the most beautiful features of different individuals according to geometric proportions. In reality, such a beauty painted in this manner might only be appreciated by the painter themselves. Beauty cannot be standardized; often, it is chance rather than formula that creates it. There are many faces that, when viewed in parts, are not particularly graceful, but as a whole, they are very captivating.

63. 复仇心令人战胜死亡，爱令人蔑视死亡，荣誉感令人追求死亡，悲伤令人飞向死亡，恐惧令人全神贯注于死亡。

63. Vengeance makes one conquer death, love makes one scorn death, the sense of honor makes one seek death, sorrow makes one soar towards death, and fear makes one focus entirely on death.

64. 6。《论美》篇。形体之美要胜于颜色之美，优雅行为之美又胜于形体之美。”

64. 6. Chapter on Beauty. The beauty of form is superior to the beauty of color, and the beauty of elegant behavior surpasses that of form.

65. 有些老人显得很可爱，因为他们的作风优雅而美。拉丁谚语说过：“晚秋的秋色是最美好的。”而尽管有的年轻人具有美貌，却由于缺乏优美的修养而不配得到赞美。

65. Some old people are very adorable because of their elegant and beautiful demeanor. A Latin proverb says, "The autumnal colors of late autumn are the most beautiful." And yet, some young people, despite their beauty, do not deserve praise because of their lack of refined修养.
