双语智慧书·心境平和则长寿

192．心境平和则长寿
　　心境平和则长寿。自己活，也让他人活。平和的人不只是活着--他们驾驭生活。做人应勤听、勤看、忌多言。白天不与人争论，夜晚便无噩梦。既活得长寿，又活得快乐，相当于活了两次，这就是心境平和的益处。一个人能不无中生有，就能应有尽有。事事锱铢必较最变态。事不关己却为之伤神，与事关自己却漠不关心是一样的愚蠢。


192．Peaceful life, a long life
　Peaceful life, a long life. To live, let live. Peacemakers not only live: they rule life. Hear, see, and be silent. A day without dispute brings sleep without dreams. Long life and a pleasant one is life enough for two: that is the fruit of peace. He has all that makes nothing of what is nothing to him. There is no greater perversity than to take everything to heart. There is equal folly in troubling our heart about what does not concern us and in not taking to heart what does.
