保持幸福的N条箴言

I believe you should live each day as if it is your last, which is why I don't have any clean laundry because, come on, who wants to wash clothes on the last day of their life?

我相信人应该就象每天都是最后的日子那样生活，这可以解释为什么我没有干净衣服――因为，得了吧，谁在生命的最后几天里还想洗衣服？

既要脚踏实地，真实地生活，又要充满希望，对未来充满着渴望和向往。

Life is complex. It has real and imaginary components

生活是复杂的，包含了真实和想象的成分。

要勇于体验各种生活，快乐尝试不同的生活。

The follies which a man regrets the most in his life are those which he didn’t commit when he had the opportunity.

人一生中最后悔的傻事是那些有机会做却没有做的事。

人们愿意和你一起分享快乐，并不一定愿意分担你的臭味儿。

微笑世界和你一起微笑，放屁你独自站在一边。

Smile and the world smiles with you, fart [放屁] and you stand alone.

努力把工作变成乐趣。

Work is work if you are paid to do it, and it’s pleasure if you pay to be allowed to do it.

如果别人出钱你工作，那工作就是工作，但如果你出钱才让你工作，那工作就是乐趣。

He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. He lived frugally, saved his money, and died early, surrounded by greedy[贪婪的] relatives. It was a great lesson to me.

他不喝酒，不吸烟，不骑自行车，非常节俭，攒下了钱，早早就死了，死后来了一大帮贪婪的亲戚，这给我上了生动的一课。

现在人人都在想方设法挣钱，如果你连挣钱的时间都挤不出来，那也挺牛的。

我可浪费不起时间去挣钱。

放弃焦虑，保持心情愉快。

I wonder why pople are always in anxiety when it is not difficult to be happy.

我象国王一样高兴――事实上我比我遇见的大多数国王还高兴。。

注：这又是一种幽默表达方式，实际上你可能没见过国王。
