中國昔時賢文 Chinese wisdom words of the past - (101)
逆水行舟,---Ni4 shui3 xing2 zhou,(101)
不進則退.---Bu4 jin4 ze2 tui4.
A boat sailing against the current must forge ahead,
Or it will be driven back.
-------------------------------------------------
年怕中秋月怕半,---Nian2 pa4 zhong qiu yue4 pa4 ban4,
男兒立志在少年.---Nan2 er2 li4 zhi4 zai4 shao3 nian2
The year is afraid of mid-autumn and the month of its half,
A fine man should resolve his aspiration when he is young.
----------------------------------------------------
學者如禾如稻,------Xue2 zhe3 ru2 he2 ru2 dao4,
不學者如蒿如草.---Bu4 xue2 zhe3 ru2 hao ru2 cao3.
Those who study are like the grains and rice,
Those who do not study are like the weeds and grass.
學習的人像禾苗庄稼一樣十分有用,
不學習的人像蒿草一樣只作柴燒。
