三毛短短九句话，便道尽人生。
一
我来不及认真地年轻，
待明白过来时，
只能选择认真地老去。
I didn't have time to be seriously young.
When you understand,
You have to choose to age seriously.
二
知音，能有一两个已经很好了，
实在不必太多，
朋友之乐，贵在那份踏实的信赖。
Bosom friend, it's good to have one or two,
Not too much,
The joy of a friend lies in his steadfast trust.
三
走得突然，我们来不及告别。
这样也好，因为我们永远不告别。
We left so suddenly that we didn't have time to say goodbye.
It's good because we'll never say goodbye.
四
人，真是奇怪，
没有外人来证明你，就往往看不出自己的价值。
Man, it's strange,
Without outsiders to prove you, you will often not see your value.
五
感谢你赠我一场空欢喜，
我们有过的美好回忆，让泪水染得模糊不清了。
偶尔想起，记忆犹新，就像当初，
我爱你，没有什么目的，只是爱你。
Thank you for giving me an empty smile,
The beautiful memories we had blurred the tears.
Now and then, I remember, just like in the beginning,
I love you, no purpose, just love you.
六
一个人至少拥有一个梦想，有一个理由去坚强。
心若没有栖息的地方，到哪里都是在流浪。
One has at least one dream and one reason to be strong.
If the heart has no place to live, everywhere is wandering.
七
如果有来生，要做一棵树，
站成永恒。没有悲欢的姿势，
一半在尘土里安详，
一半在风里飞扬；
一半洒落荫凉，
一半沐浴阳光。
非常沉默、非常骄傲。
从不依靠、从不寻找。
If there is an afterlife, be a tree,
Stand for eternity. There is no sad or happy posture,
Half serene in the dust,
Half flying in the wind;
Half in the shade,
Half in the sun.
Very quiet,
very proud.
Never depend, never look.
八
如果你给我的，
和你给别人的是一样的，
那我就不要了。
If you give it to me,
It's the same thing you give to people,
Then I won't.
九
或许，我们终究会有那么一天：
牵着别人的手，遗忘曾经的他。
Perhaps we will someday:
Take someone's hand and forget him.
