死亡诗社经典台词
   
    Becuase believe or not,each one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing,turn cold and die. I'd like you to step forward of you and peruse some of the faces from the past. They're not that different from you ,are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones. Just like you. Invincible just like you fell. The world is their oyster. They belive they're destined for great things, just like many of you,their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to makefrom their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because,you see gentelman,these boys are now fertilising daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on,lean in. Listen,you hear it ? hear it?...Carpe,carpe diem,seize the day,boys,make your lives extrordinary.

前到这儿来,细细玩味往后的面孔,你们经过这儿无数次,但从未真正看过他们,和你的差异并不非常大,对吧?同样的发型,和你们一样精力旺盛,和你们一样不可一世,世界都在他们的获取之中,他们认为注定要成就大事,和大多数的你们一样,他们的嘴唇充满了希望,和你们一样.他们有没有虚度时光,到最后一无所成?因为各位所听到的这些男孩现在都已化为尘土了,如果你们仔细感同身受,便能听见他们在低声耳语,附耳过去,仔细听,听见了?听见了吗? CARPE DIEM 及时行乐,孩子们,让你的生命超越凡俗.

    人生就应该是快乐的,要抓住每一天,孩子们。让你们的生活出去趋于非凡起来。
   
    To fully understand poetry, we must first be fluent with its meter, rhyme and figures of speech, then ask two questions: 1) How artfully has the objective of the poem been rendered and 2) How important is that objective?
   
    要完全理解诗歌,我们首先必须了解它的格调、韵律、修辞手法,然后提两个问题:第一,诗主题如何艺术地同时实现;第二,诗主题的重要性。第一个总是解决的是诗歌的艺术性。第二个环境问题回答的是诗歌的重要性。(《英语诗歌五百年》序言)die in your arms

    We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race.
   
    And the human race is filled with passion.
   
    And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.
   
    But poetry, beauty,romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
   
    我们读诗写诗,非为它的灵巧.我们读诗写诗,因为我们是人类的一员.而人类散发出了热情.
   
    医药,法律,商业,工程,这些都是高贵的纯粹,并且是维生的必需条件.
   
    但是诗,美,浪漫,爱,这些才是我们生存的原因.
   
    Show me the heart unfettered by foolish dreams
