人不是环境的产物；环境是人的产物。

解释：节俭就会产生对生产不利的因素，侈靡则造成对财富的耗费。

As a kid， I spent my summers with my grandparents on their ranch in Texas. I helped fix windmills， vaccinate cattle， and do other chores. We also watched soap operas every afternoon， especially "Days of our Lives." My grandparents belonged to a Caravan Club， a group of Airstream trailer owners who travel together around the U.S. and Canada. And every few summers， we'd join the caravan. We'd hitch up the Airstream trailer to my grandfather's car， and off we'd go， in a line with 300 other Airstream adventurers. I loved and worshipped my grandparents and I really looked forward to these trips. On one particular trip， I was about 10 years old. I was rolling around in the big bench seat in the back of the car. My grandfather was driving. And my grandmother had the passenger seat. She smoked throughout these trips， and I hated the smell.

There are certain things that we cannot make ourselves believe， no matter how hard we try.

最重要的是享受比赛。

我已经失去我的生命中不死的一部分，留下来的也就跟畜生没有分别了。
