1、Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
或许我可用夏日把你来比方,
但你比夏日更可爱也更温良。
——「十四行诗」
2、Tomorrow is always fresh
with no mistakes in it yet.
明日永远新鲜如初,纤尘不染。
——「绿山墙的安妮」
3、From the ashes a fire shall be woken,a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken,the crownless again shall be king.
灰烬重燃熊熊火,阴影复苏熠熠光;宝剑锋从断錾出,无冕之人再称王。——「指环王」
4、And when wind and winter harden. All the loveless land,It will whisper of the garden,You will understand.
当北风与冬天让一切凝固,一切变成爱的荒原,它就会低诉花园的絮语,你就会恍然大悟。——「致妻子:题我的一本诗集」
5、I can‘t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.我已无法重返昨日,因为我已不同昨昔。——「爱丽丝梦游仙境」
