I Dare Not Linger by Nelson Mandela
“爸媽,回吧,俺自己行~”
After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom comes responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended. 翻越一座高山,看到前麵還有更多的山要爬。我在此小憩一會兒,瀏覽一下周圍美麗的風光,回頭望望走過來的路。可是,我隻能作短暫休息,因為為了更大自由而負有的責任;我不敢因這些美景而逗留徘徊,因為前麵的路還很長沒到盡頭。
—— 納爾遜-曼德拉(阿蘭譯)
