Director: Ang Lee


All of life is an act of letting go, but what hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye.

人生也许就是不断地放下，然而令人痛心的是，我都没能好好地与他们道别。

Pi: “Religion is a house with many rooms.” Writer: “But no room for doubt?”Pi: “Oh yes! On every floor.”
派：“信仰就像一座房屋，可以有很多楼层、很多房间。”作家：“那有怀疑的空间么？”派：“当然，怀疑在每一层都占了几间。”

I must say a word about fear. It is life’s only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life.
这里必须说说恐惧，它是生活惟一真正的对手，因为只有恐惧才能打败生活。

If every unfolding we experience takes us further along in life, then, we are truly experiencing what life is offering...
如果我们在人生中体验的每一次转变都让我们在生活中走得更远，那么，我们就真正的体验到了生活想让我们体验的东西。

I'm grateful. It's the plain truth: without Richard Parker, I wouldn't be alive today to tell you my story.
我非常感恩。说实话，如果没有理查德·帕克，我也不可能活到今天跟你讲述我的故事。

It was a time filled with wonder that I'll always remember.
那是一段充满着奇幻的经历，我会永生铭记。

Pi: “Which story do you prefer? ” Writer: “The one with the tiger.” Pi: “And so it goes with God.”
派：“两个故事你更喜欢哪一个？”作家：“我喜欢有老虎那个，因为那个故事更精彩。”派：“所以，你跟随上帝。”

Then Richard Parker, companion of my torment, awful, fierce thing that kept me alive, moved forward and disappeared forever from my life.
然后，那个让我生存下来的理查德·帕克，那个让我痛苦、使我害怕的凶狠的伙伴，径直向前走没有回头，永远消失在我的生命里。

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
每天玩苹果的人，拿不到博士学位。

这原是一句谚语：“一天一苹果，医生远离我。”现在乔布斯改变了人们对“苹果”的概念，而doctor既指“医生”，也指“博士”，看明白了吗？哈哈~
