On Fame ~ Mark Twain

To some people it is fatal to be recognized by greatness.

Fame is a vapor; popularity an accident; the only earthly certainty is oblivion.

Obscurity and a competence. That is the life that is best worth living.

<談名氣>

對有些人來講 ,被推崇為著名人物,是件要命的事。

名氣為雲煙,聲望為偶然,唯有遺忘實在又可靠。

默默無聞又擁有足以舒適過日子的財產,便是最有價值的生活。

~ 馬克吐溫的智慧
