[The Meaning of Life]生命的意义

节选自：The Bucket List 电影《遗愿清单》又叫《一路玩到掛》

原文 译文：

Edward Perman Cole died in May. It was a Sunday afternoon and there wasn't a cloud in the sky.

爱德华·佩瑞曼·科尔在五月去世了。那是在一个周日的下午，天空万里无云

It's difficult to understand the sum of a person's life. Some people would tell you it's measured by the ones left behind some believe that it can be measured in faith some say by love other folks say life has no meaning at all . . .

我们很难衡量一个人一生的价值。有人说取决于他所留下事物。有人让信仰来评定。有人说爱能衡量一切。还有人说人生根本就没有意义......

Me I believe that you measure yourself by the people who measure themselves by you.

至于我，我相信你可以用那些以你为衡量标准的人来衡量自己。

What I can tell you for sure is that by any measure Edward Cole lived more in his last days on earth than most people manage to wring out of a lifetime. I know that when he died his eyes were closed and his heart was open . . .

而我所肯定的就是，无论你采用什么标准，爱德华·科尔在这世上活着的最后日子比大部分人穷其一生的日子还要充实。我知道当他去世时，他的双眼是闭上的，而他的心灵却是敞开的。
