老太太金句摘抄

第一集 Oh, don’t say that. It’s our job to provide employment. An aristocrat with no servants is as much use to the country as a glass hammer! 可别这么说，提供职位是我们的职责。没有佣人的贵族对这个社会一点用处都没有。 第二集 No guest should be admitted with no date of their departure settled. 就不应该让没定离程日期的客人来。 I speak of teste rather than law. 不是不能说，只是不合时宜。 We can’t wait that long. She looks as if she’ll bury us all. 我们等不了那么久，看她的气色能比我们活得都长呢。 Nothing succeeds like excess. 奢华自然无与伦比。 Never mistake a wish for a certainty. 希望的事不要说那么肯定。 第三集 Actually I thought a little sober reflection would not have gone amiss. 我倒觉得谨慎考虑总没有坏处。 第四集 You are woman with a brain and reasonable ability. Stop whining and find something to do. 你是位有头脑有能力的女性。别整天愁眉苦脸的，找点事做。 第五集 My dear, when tragedies strike, we try to find someone to blame. In the absence of a suitable candidate, we usually blame ourselves. You are not to blame. No one is to blame. 亲爱的，当悲剧降临，我们总想把责任归咎别人。如果无人可以指责，我们往往会责备自己。 不该怪你。怪不得任何人。 第六集 Grief makes oneself terribly tired. 悲痛太让人疲倦。 I will not criticize a mother who grieves for her daughter. 母亲为女儿悲痛无可厚非。 I do not speak much of the heart, since it’s seldom helpful to do so. But I know well enough the pain when it is broken. 我不常说人心如何，因为越说越伤心。但我非常清楚心碎的痛楚。 第七集 It did not seem appropriate to let the whole thing end in chaos and quarrel. 我认为造成混乱，大家不欢而散会不合适。 I do not criticize your motives, but did you really consider？ 我赞同你的动机，但你真的考虑周全了吗？ You have surrounded this house with a miasma of scandal and touched all of us by association. 你让这个家陷入丑闻之中给我们也带来了连带伤害。 第八集 第九集 It’s bad enough parenting a child when you like each other. 就算母女融洽，教导孩子也不是件易事呢。
