向小熊維尼學習尋找快樂的秘訣

小熊維尼的作者艾倫‧亞歷山大‧米爾恩（1882-1956）以兒童故事書為主軸創造出了小熊維尼，這隻卡通熊擁有成人所沒有的純真，但有時他會如同大人般說出些具有哲學性的話。為了讓大家能從不同的角度看待人生，這裏整理了維尼語錄，關於友誼、勇氣及生命中的各種挑戰，希望能讓你有所收穫。

A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside.

沒有朋友就像是罐子裏毫無蜂蜜一樣令人沮喪。

A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference.

多給別人一些體諒、多為別人考慮一點，那一切將截然不同。

Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again?

你是否曾停下腳步思考，卻忘了重新開始？

Love is taking a few steps backward maybe even more……to give way to the happiness of the person you love.

愛是退讓了幾步，甚至更多，為了讓那些我們愛的人快樂。

Pooh：What day is it?
Piglet squeaked：It's today！
Pooh：My favorite day！

小熊維尼：今天是甚麼日子呢？
小豬尖叫：是今天！
小熊維尼：我最愛的日子就是今天！

If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart, I'll always be with you.

假如明天我們不能在一起，那我希望你能永遠記得：你比自己所想象的更勇敢，比你所表現的更堅強，比所認為的更聰慧。另外最重要的是，即使我們不得不分離，我依然與你同在。

Piglet: How do you spell 「love」?
Pooh: You don't spell it……
you feel it.

小豬：你怎麼拼寫「愛」呢？
小熊維尼：不是用拼，而是靠感覺。

Poetry and hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you. And all you can do is go where they can find you.

詩歌和蜜蜂聲不是你想找就可以找到的，你所能做的就是到它們能發現你的地方。

Rabbit: I don't see much sense in that！
Pooh: No, there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way.

兔子：我看不出這意義所在！
小熊維尼：是沒有，但當我開始的時候意義就存在了，在路程中總會發生。

Piglet: Pooh, when you wake up in the morning, what's the first thing you say to yourself?
Pooh: What's for breakfast? What do you say, Piglet?
Piglet: I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?
Pooh nodded thoughtfully: It's the same thing.

小豬：維尼，你早上起床第一件事會想甚麼？
小熊維尼：早餐要吃甚麼好呢？你呢？
小豬：我會想，不知道今天會發生甚麼讓人興奮的事呢？
小熊維尼若有所思地點頭：這是同一件事。◇
