夸夸其谈的

I saw through his shabby-genteel dinners and public-house port; his fine talk of the grandeur of his family; his sham pride and independence, and the sham tears in his bleared old eyes when he talkled of his only child.

我看到了他所布下的陷阱，诱使龙骑兵陷进去的、一切叫人恶心的、可鄙的、显而易见的陷队我看透了他那硬装体面的寒酸正餐和小酒馆葡萄酒；他那吹嘘其家族如何高贵的夸夸其谈；他那假装出来的自豪和独立的气概，以及他讲起他的独生女儿时朦胧老眼里假装出来的泪水。

If------ By Joseph Rudyard Kipling If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; I f you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or, being hated, don't give away to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream---and not make dreams your master; If you can think--- and not make thoughts your aim; I f you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two imposters just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and toss And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; I f you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will, which says to them: hold on!

翻译成中文就是假如——假如你能——在别人不知所措却对你横加指责的时候，保持清醒的头脑；假如你能——在所有人都怀疑你的时候仍然相信自己，并能体谅别人对你的怀疑；假如你能等待且又充满耐心，或者，从不用谎言去应付谎言，也不用仇恨去回击仇恨，既不故作正经也不夸夸其谈。假如你充满梦想——但绝不做梦想的奴仆；假如你勤于思考——却不把思想当作目标；假如你能——在遇到胜利和困难时态度同样平静；假如你能容忍你所说的真理，被无赖用作捕捉愚人的陷阱，或看着你所献身的事业轰然倒塌，你能屈身拾起残破的工具把它们重建。假如你能——把所有赢来的筹码都押在一把赌注上，输光后仍能重新再来，且对输赢只字不提。假如你能——在运气不佳身心俱疲之时，仍能全力以赴抓住机遇，在一无所有只剩意志支撑的时刻，咬牙坚持到底。

I'm strongly against the death penalty — it's an eye for an eye.

我不赞成死刑——这是以牙还牙的报复行为。

And to get you the support you need, we're enlisting all elements of our national power: our diplomacy and development, our economic might and our moral suasion, so that you and the rest of our military do not bear the burden of our security alone.

并给你们所须的支援，我们正徵召国家所有各种的力量：我们的外交及发展，我们的经济力量与道德劝说，所以你们与其他军人不须要孤独地负起国家安全的责任。
