If you don't believe it, stand up here and try it.
All of you. Take turns.
Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in another way.

Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try!

Come, my friends. It’s not too late to seek a newer world.
For my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset. And though we are not now that strength which in old days… moved earth and heaven… that which we are , we are. One equal temper of heroic hearts… made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find…and not to yield.
Alfred Lord Tennyson 亚佛洛德丁尼生
来吧!我的朋友.寻找更新的世界尚为时不晚。我决心已定，要驶过夕阳的尽头。尽管我们不再有昔日的伟力，可以震天撼地，我们仍然有着同样的英雄般的心。虽为时光命运摧残，但坚强意志依然，去拼搏，去探索，去发现，永不屈服。
I would’ve walked differently. 我本可以走得与众不同。
We all have a great need for acceptance.

the difficulty in maintaining your own beliefs in the face of others。
我们都有一种被人接受的需要。但是你必须坚持自己的信仰是独特的是你自己的，哪怕别人认为它们很怪，或者很讨厌，哪怕一群人都说，那太差。
we all have a great need for acceptance. But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them odd or unpopular, even though the herd may go。
罗伯特·弗洛斯特：希望你们也找到自己的路，找到自己的步伐、步调，任何方向，任何东西都行，不管是自负也好，愚蠢也好，什么都行。
I want you to find your own walk right now. Your own way of striding, pacing. Any direction. Anything you want. Whether it's proud, whether it's silly, anything. Gentlemen, the courtyard is yours。
你们用不着表演，完全为你自己。You don't have to perform. Just make it for yourself。
But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own
但你们必须相信自己的信念独一无二
Even though others may think them odd or unpopular

Even though the herd may go, that’s bad.

语言的目的只有一个：交流(学生)追求女人(老师)
language was developed for one endeavor, and that is?
To communicate…No,to woo women。
站上讲台，用不同的眼光来看待事物。
we must constantly look at things in a different way。
一旦觉得自己懂得，就必须换一种角度来看。这可能显得有些荒唐，或者愚蠢，但必须试一下。同样读书的时候，不要只想作者怎么看，想想你自己怎么看。
Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in another way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try! Now, when you read, don't just consider what the author thinks. Consider what you think。
你们必须努力寻找自己的声音，因为你越迟开始寻找，找到的可能性就越小。
Boys, you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all。
梭罗说“大多数人都生活在平静的绝望中”。别陷入这种境地，冲出来。别像老鼠逃跑似的，看看你的周围，要敢于开拓自己的天地。
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation。(Thoreau)Don't be resigned to that. Break out! Don't just walk off the edge like lemmings。
To struggle against great odds, to meet enemies undaunted
与逆境不屈抗争，以无畏的气势面对敌人。
To be a sailor of the world bound for all ports.
做世界的水手，游遍所有的港口。
