死亡诗社经典台词（中英文对照）启明按：看到罗宾威廉姆斯去世的消息，脑海中立马浮现出当时看《死亡诗社》和《心灵捕手》时那些令人激动的电影情节和画面。从豆瓣上转来《死亡诗社》的经典台词，以此纪念这位曾经带给我们无数感动与温暖的伟大演员。
全文如下：
一、及时行乐，让你的生命超越凡俗 《船长，我的船长》Oh,captain ,my captain! 《劝少年们珍惜时光》及时采撷你的花蕾／旧时光一去不回/今天尚在微笑的花朵／明天变得风中枯萎(丁尼生)Gather ye rosebuds while ye may/Old time isstill a-flying/And this same flowers that smiles today/Tomorrowwill be dying 因为信不信由你，这个房间里的每个人，总有一天都要停止呼吸，僵冷，死亡。我要你们向前到这儿来，细细玩味过去的面孔，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，世界都在他们的掌握之中，他们认为注定要成就大事，和大多数的你们一样，他们的双眼充满了希望，和你们一样。他们是否虚度时光，到最后一无所成？因为各位所见到的……这些男孩现在都已化为尘土了，如果你们仔细倾听，便能听见他们在低声耳语，附耳过去，仔细听，听见了？CARPE..。听见了吗？CARPE...CARPE DIEM 及时行乐，孩子们，让你的生命超越凡俗。Becuase believe or not, each one of us in thisroom is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die. I'dlike you to step forward of you and peruse some of the faces fromthe past. They're not that different from you , are they? Samehaircuts.Fullof hormones. Just like you. Invincible just like you fell. Theworld is their oyster. They belive they're destined for greatthings, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, justlike you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from theirlives evenone iota of what they were capable? Because, you seegentelman, these boys are now fertilisingdaffodils. Butif you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy toyou. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it ? Carpe...hearit?...Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day, boys, make your livesextrordinary。
二、诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情，才是我们活着的意义。 《英语诗歌五百年》序言：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，诗主题如何艺术地实现；第二，诗主题的重要性。Tofully understand poetry, we must first be fluent with its meter,rhyme and figures of speech, then ask two questions: 1) Howartfully has the objective of the poem been rendered and 2) Howimportant is that objective? 我们不是在接水管。We'renot laying pipe。 惟有在梦中，人们才是真正自由的。Onlyin their dreams can men be trulyfree。 学会自己思考，学会欣赏文学和语言。不管别人怎么说，文学和语言的确能改变世界。Learnto think for yourselves again. No matter what anybody tells you,words and ideas can change theworld。 我们读诗、写诗并不是因为它们好玩，而是因为我们是人类的一分子，而人类是充满激情的。没错，医学、法律、商业、工程，这些都是崇高的追求，足以支撑人的一生。但诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情，这些才是我们活着的意义。Wedon't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and writepoetry because we are members of the human race. And the human raceis 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 alivefor。
(梭罗)死亡诗人致力于吸取生命的精华。TheDead Poets was dedicated to "sucking the marrow out oflife"。 我们是一群浪漫主义者。我们不仅仅是念诗，诗从我们舌间滑落，就像蜜糖。情绪高涨，女人亢奋，灵魂驰骋。Weweren't a Greek organization. We were Romantics. We didn't justread poetry, we let it drip from our tongues like honey. Spiritssoared, women swooned and gods werecreated。 (梭罗)我步入丛林／因为我希望生活得有意义／我希望活得深刻／吸取生命中所有的精华／把非生命的一切都击溃／以免当我生命终结／发现自己从没有活过Iwent to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wantedto live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.To put to rout allthat was not life, and not, when I had come to die, discover that Ihad not lived。
(丁尼生)来吧，我的朋友／寻找更新世界尚为时不晚／我决心已定，要驶过夕阳尽头／尽管我们不再有昔日的伟力，可以震天撼地／我们仍有着，同样的英雄的心／时间和命运，使它衰老／但坚强意志仍在／让我们去奋斗，去探索，去发现／永不屈服(Alfred Lord Tennyson)Come my friends, 'Tis nottoo late to seek a newer world for my purpose holds to sail beyondthe sunset. And though we are not now that strength which in olddays Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;-- One equaltemper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong inwill. To strive, to seek, to find, and not toyield。
然后我有了信仰／然后我有了想象／我被他们沉迷的嘲笑所感染／然后我看见刚果河／在黑土地上流过／在森林中划下一道金色的沟壑(语言的节奏感)ThenI had religion, then I had a vision. I could not turn from theirrevel in derision. Then I saw the Congo creeping through the black,cutting through the forest with a goldentrack。
三、要敢于开拓自己的天地 语言的目的只有一个：交流(学生)追求女人(老师)language was developed for one endeavor, andthat is?Tocommunicate...No,to woo women。 站上讲台，用不同的眼光来看待事物。wemust constantly look at things in a differentway。 一旦觉得自己懂得，就必须换一种角度来看。这可能显得有些荒唐，或者愚蠢，但必须试一下。同样读书的时候，不要只想作者怎么看，想想你自己怎么看。Justwhen you think you know something, you have to look at it inanother way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try!Now, when you read, don't just consider what the author thinks.Consider what you think。 你们必须努力寻找自己的声音，因为你越迟开始寻找，找到的可能性就越小。Boys,you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you waitto begin, the less likely you are to find it atall。 梭罗说“大多数人都生活在平静的绝望中”。别陷入这种境地，冲出来。别像老鼠逃跑似的，看看你的周围，要敢于开拓自己的天地。Mostmen lead lives of quiet desperation。(Thoreau)Don't be resigned tothat. Break out! Don't just walk off the edge likelemmings。
四、做一个真正的上帝！ 对我来说，运动只是一种让其他人把我们推向极致的机会。Forme, sport is actually a chance for us to have other human beingspush us to excel。
与逆境不屈抗争，以无畏的气势面对敌人。Oh tostruggle against great odds. To meet enemiesundaunted。 做一个世界的水手，游遍所有的港口。To bea sailor of the world, bound for allports。 我要做生活的主宰，而不是奴隶。Oh, Ilive to be the ruler of life, not aslave。 走上绞刑台，面对行刑的枪口，我息安之如泰。Tomount the scaffolds. To advance to the muzzle of guns with perfectnonchalance。 舞蹈、鼓掌、兴奋、欢叫、跳跃、飘飘荡荡、滚滚向前Todance, clap hands, exalt, shout, skip, roll on, floaton。 哦，让生活从此变成一首欢乐的诗。Oh,to have life henceforth the poem of newjoys。 做一个真正的上帝！Toindeed be a god!
五、主题简单无妨，只是不要太俗套 1.爱(诗歌和生活的重要主题)
我在她微笑中看到了甜蜜／她的眼睛闪烁着光芒／但生活如此复杂／我已满意／只要知道／只要知道／她还活着I seea sweetness in her smile. Blight light shines from her eyes. Butlife is complete; contentment is mine, Just knowing that... justknowing that she's alive。 2.主题简单无妨，只是不要太俗套Sometimes the most beautiful poetry can be aboutsimple things. Just don't let your poems beordinary。 3.惠特曼“站在世界屋脊上，我喊出我野性的狂叫”Isound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of theworld。
一个牙齿流汗的疯子asweaty-toothed madman。
我闭上眼睛，他的形象在我眼前晃悠Iclose my eyes. this image floats besideme。
一个牙齿流汗的疯子，瞪得我心怦怦直跳Asweaty-toothed madman with a stare that pounds mybrain。
他伸出手，掐信我的脖子。Hishands reach out and choke me。
他一直在念叨真理。allthe time he's mumbling.Truth。
真理就像一床总让你双脚冰凉的毯子／你怎么扯，怎么拽，总也不够／踢也好，打也好，它总也盖不住我们／从我们哭着降生／到我们奄奄一息／它只会盖住你的脸／不管你如何痛苦／不管你如何痛苦／如何叫喊 Truthis like, like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold. You pushit, stretch it, it'll never be enough. You kick at it, beat it,it'll never cover any of us. From the moment we enter crying to themoment we leave dying, it will just cover your face as you wail andcry and scream。
六、你们用不着表演，完全为你自己。 坚持与从俗不同的信仰的困难。thedifficulty in maintaining your own beliefs in the face ofothers。 我们都有一种被人接受的需要。但是你必须坚持自己的信仰是独特的是你自己的，哪怕别人认为它们很怪，或者很讨厌，哪怕一群人都说，那太差。weall have a great need for acceptance. But you must trust that yourbeliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them oddor unpopular, even though the herd maygo。 罗伯特·弗洛斯特：希望你们也找到自己的路，找到自己的步伐、步调，任何方向，任何东西都行，不管是自负也好，愚蠢也好，什么都行。Iwant you to find your own walk right now. Your own way of striding,pacing. Any direction. Anything you want. Whether it's proud,whether it's silly, anything. Gentlemen, the courtyard isyours。 你们用不着表演，完全为你自己。Youdon't have to perform. Just make it foryourself。 要敢于逆流而上。Swimagainst the stream。
