英語哲理美文欣賞：Silence 沉默 （雙語）

silence is soundlessness; silence exists in different forms.無聲即沉默。

沉默有各種各樣copyright

an empty head or a blank mind which leads to speechlessness--that is silence.腹中空泛，思想一片蒼白，故無言可發，這是沉默。

enthusiasm fades like dying embers and thus leads to cynicism and indifference to life, which arouses neither happiness nor sadness, neither worries nor anger, and which costs people their interest in and desire for anything--that is silence.熱情已如柴薪盡燃，故而冷漠處世，無喜無悲，無憂無憤，對人世的.一切都失去興趣和慾望，這也是沉默。

despite all the experiences of love and hate, of disorientation and reorientation, of order-giving that was answered by hundreds and call-issuing that was not answered by a single soul, there is not a word uttered, but only a clam eye that watches on this world--that is also silence.有過愛，有過恨，有過迷茫，有過穎悟，有過一呼百應的吶喊，有過得不到回報的呼喚，然而卻收口如瓶，只是平靜地冷眼看世界，這是沉默。
