Gail Wonderland Blogger 歡迎來到 Gail 夢幻世界的 部落格

"I want to thank you for… I really want to thank you for believing in this story and share this incredible journey with me."

「謝謝你們相信這個故事，與我分享這個不可思議的旅程..... 」這是李安在奧斯卡頒獎中的致詞。今天和各位讀者一起讀＜少年Pi的奇幻漂流＞的經典台詞，那奇幻又真實的旅程，真的教人盪氣迴腸。

1. All of life is an act of ⁽¹⁾ letting go, but what hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye.
人生就是不斷地放下，然而最讓人痛心的是，沒來得及說再見。

2. Then Richard Parker, companion of my torment, awful, fierce thing that kept me alive, moved forward and disappeared forever from my life.
然後，那個讓我生存下來的理查派克，那個讓我痛苦、害怕的兇狠的夥伴，就這麼向前走沒有回頭，永遠消失在我的生命裡。

3. If every unfolding we experience takes us further along in life, then, we are truly experiencing what life is offering.
如果我們在生命中的每一次轉變都讓我們走得更遠，那麼，我們就真正的體驗到了生命的奉獻。

4. I must say a word about fear. It is life’s only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life.
我必須說說恐懼，它是生活唯一真正的對手，因為只有恐懼才能打敗生活。

5. Pi: “Religion is a house with many rooms.”
Writer: “But no room for doubt?”
Pi: “Oh yes! On every floor.”

Pi：「信仰就像一座房屋，可以有很多樓層、很多房間。」
作家：「那有懷疑的空間麼？」
Pi：「當然，每一層樓都有。」

6. Pi: “Which story do you prefer?”
Writer: “The one with the tiger.”
Pi: “And so it ⁽²⁾ goes with God.”

Pi：「“兩個故事你喜歡哪一個？」
作家：「我喜歡有老虎那個。」
Pi：「所以，上帝也是這個道理。」

7. The most important thing is not to despair.
最重要的是不要絕望。

8. Life on a lifeboat isn’t much of a life. It is like an end game in chess, a game with few pieces. The elements couldn’t be more simple, nor the stakes higher.
舢板上的人生不像真實的人生，它更接近下棋，只有幾只棋子。元素再簡單不過的，賭局卻更高。
