Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
青春不是年華，而是一種心境；它不是玫瑰色得臉頰、紅紅得嘴唇和柔軟得膝蓋；它是深沉得意志，是恢弘得想象，是炙熱得情感；青春是生命得源泉在涌流。
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春氣貫如虹，勇氣高于膽怯，進取壓倒茍安。這種銳氣通常存在于20歲得男孩身上，但60歲得男人更多見。變老不是歲月得疊加。我們通過拋棄我們得理想而變老。
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
歲月可能會使皮膚起皺紋，但放棄熱情會使靈魂產(chǎn)生皺紋。擔(dān)心、恐懼、不自信使心靈扭曲、意氣如灰。
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite for what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.
無論是60歲還是16歲，每個人得心中都有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩子般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一臺天線，只要你從天上人間接收無限得美麗、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量得信號，你就青春永駐，風(fēng)華長存。
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80.
當(dāng)天線倒塌，你得銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭和自暴自棄油然而生，即使20歲，實已垂垂老矣；但只要你得天線升起，捕捉樂觀信號，你就有可能在80高齡告別塵寰時仍然覺得年輕。
