愛, Love

愛

愛是你我必須有的東西
我們必須有愛，因為我們的靈魂需要愛的滋養
我們必須有愛，因為沒有愛我們會變得軟弱和暗淡無光
沒有愛，我們的自信心會變弱
沒有愛，我們的勇氣會喪失
沒有愛，我們不再會充滿信心地麵對世界
我們會轉向自我，侵蝕我們的人格，慢慢地自我毀滅
有了愛，我們會創造
有了愛，我們會不知疲倦地向前進
有了愛，僅僅隻要愛
我們會為他人犧牲自己

Love

Love is something you and I must have.

We must have it because our spirit feeds upon it.

We must have it because without it we become weak and faint.

Without love our self-esteem weakens.

Without it our courage fails.

Without love we can no longer look confidently at the world.

We turn inward and begin to feed upon our own personalities,

and little by little we destroy it ourselves.

With it we are creative.

With it we march tirelessly.

With it, and with it alone,

we are able to sacrifice for others.

-Chief Dan George
