“But a man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”
人不是为失败而生的。一个人可以被毁灭,但不能给打败
But, then, nothing is easy.
不过话得说回来,没有一桩事是容易的。
It is silly not to hope, he thought.

Now is no time to think of what you do not have. Think of what you can do with what there is.
现在不是去想缺少什么的时候,该想一想凭现有的东西你能做什么
But none of these scars were fresh. They were as old as erosions in a fishless desert. Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.
但是这些伤疤中没有一块是新的。它们像无鱼可打的沙漠中被侵蚀的地方一般古老。他身上的一切都显得古老,除了那双眼睛,它们像海水一般蓝,是愉快而不肯认输的.
They were strange shoulders, still powerful although very old, and the neck was still strong too and the creases did not show so much when the old man was asleep and his head fallen forward.
这两个肩膀挺怪,人非常老迈了,肩膀却依然很强健,脖子也依然很壮实,而且当老人睡着了,脑袋向前耷拉着的时候,皱纹也不大明显了
His shirt had been patched so many times that it was like the sail and the patches were faded to many different shades by the sun.
他的衬衫上不知打了多少次补丁,弄得像他那张帆一样,这些补丁被阳光晒得褪成了许多深浅不同的颜色.
The clouds over the land now rose like mountains and the coast was only a long green line with the gray blue hills behind it. The water was a dark blue now, so dark that it was almost purple
陆地上空的云块这时候像山冈般耸立着,海岸只剩下一长条绿色的线,背后是些灰青色的小山.海水此刻呈现蓝色,深的简直发紫了
The boy loved the old fisherman and pitied him. If Manolin had no money of his own, he begged or stole to make sure that Santiago had enough to eat and fresh baits for his lines. The old man accepted his kindness with humility that was like a quiet kind of pride.
孩子喜欢并且可怜这个老渔人。曼诺林要是自己没有挣到钱,就会乞讨或偷窃以保证桑提亚哥有足够的食物和新鲜的鱼饵。老人谦卑地接受孩子的好意,谦卑中带有某种隐而不露的自豪感。
As the sun rose he saw other boats in toward shore, which was only a low green line on the sea.
阳升起时,他看到别的一些船只都头朝着海岸,在海上看来海岸象是一条接近地平线的绿带子。
The old man shivered in the cold that came after sunset. When something took one of his remaining baits, he cut the line with his sheath knife.
日落之后,寒意袭人,老人冷得发抖。当他剩下的鱼饵中有一块被咬住时,他就用自己那把带鞘的刀把钓丝给割断了。

A man is not born to fail.
One can be destoryed, but not defeated.

Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready

这句不解释,自己去理解

“ It is not bad,” he said. “ And pain does not matter to a man.” “那还不错,”他说,“并且,疼痛、伤痕对一个人来说不应该让其成为问题。”
Most people are heartless about turtles because a turtle’s heart will beat for hours after he has been cut up and butchered. But the old man thought, I have such a heart too and my feet and hands are like theirs. 大多数人对待(海龟、甲鱼之类的动物吧)很冷酷无情,因为海龟的心会在它身体被剖开和屠杀时,被时光打败。(此句照应“A man can be destroyed but not defeated ” “一个人可以被毁灭但是不能被打倒!”)
