丘吉爾和女王

(2021-10-18 05:57:57) 下一個

偶然看到這些照片,發現裏麵有讓人感動的地方。女王身後有個丘吉爾,真是滿滿的愛意。

再者,尼赫魯的印度和英國的關係這麽好,巴基斯坦和印度同為英聯邦。也沒有說一定要找英國報殖民的仇。反而是印度向英國學科學,英美到印度學習精神、修行。

這個老太太還是個人,可親近的人。。。有意思。可見人不是必須要神秘才能獲得尊重。

這一段講話寫得很好啊,收錄一下。

That it is possible for some of you to see me today is just another example of the speed at which things are changing all around us. Because of these changes I am not surprised that many people feel lost and unable to decide what to hold on to and what to discard. How to take advantage of the new life without losing the best of the old.

But it is not the new inventions which are the difficulty. The trouble is caused by unthinking people who carelessly throw away ageless ideals as if they were old and outworn machinery.

They would have religion thrown aside, morality in personal and public life made meaningless, honesty counted as foolishness and self-interest set up in place of self-restraint.

At this critical moment in our history we will certainly lose the trust and respect of the world if we just abandon those fundamental principles which guided the men and women who built the greatness of this country and Commonwealth.

Today we need a special kind of courage, not the kind needed in battle but a kind which makes us stand up for everything that we know is right, everything that is true and honest. We need the kind of courage that can withstand the subtle corruption of the cynics so that we can show the world that we are not afraid of the future.

It has always been easy to hate and destroy. To build and to cherish is much more difficult. That is why we can take a pride in the new Commonwealth we are building.

歡迎!從她和他們身上,讓人理解了一些老詞的含義。
君君臣臣。知道自己的位子,就像球隊各打各的位子。她和丘吉爾,人間自有真情。。。
