:绝望的主妇经典台词

　　223-224、 This is the street where I used to live, and these were the people with whom I shared my life. I met them the day they moved in. And I saw what they brought with them beautiful dreams for the future. And quiet hopes for a better life, not just for themselves, but for their children, too. If I could, would I tell them what lies ahead? Would I warn them of the sorrow and betrayal that lie in store? No. From where I stand now, I see enough of the road to understand how it must be traveled. The trick is to keep moving forward, to let go of the fear and the regret that slow us down and keep us from enjoying a journey that will be over too soon. Yes, there will be unexpected bends in the road, shocking surprises we didn't see coming, but that's really the point, don't ya think?

　　这就是我曾经生活过的街道，这曾是我与其分享生活的人们。从他们搬来的那一天起我们就认识了。我看到了他们所带来的对未来的美好憧憬，对更好的生活的向往，不仅仅为他们自己，还有为了他们的孩子。如果可能的话，我应该告诉他们在前方等待着的是什么吗？我应该警告他们将至的悲伤与背叛吗？不。在我所处于的位置，我自然能明白路应该如何走。秘诀就是一直向前行，放下恐惧和遗憾，因为它们会让我们放慢脚步，阻碍我们享受这转瞬即逝的旅程。是的，前方有无法预料的转折，令人措手不及的惊讶，但是，生活的意思不正在于此吗？

　　Control. It's extraordinary the tactics people employ to obtain it. Some rely on deception, while others engage in outright trickery. Then there are those who resort to extorsion. Why do we fight so hard for control? Because we know: To lose it is to put our fate in the hands of others. And what could be more dangerous?

　　控制，人们为了得到它真实无所不为。有些人靠诡计，有些人则用正直的把戏，还有一些人则屈服于勒索，我们为什么这么拼命的想得到控制呢？因为我们知道，一旦失去了控制，我们的命运就掌握在别人的手里了，还有什么比这更危险的呢？

　　203、 Everyone enjoys a game of make-believe now and then. Of course, the ways in which we play can vary greatly. Sometimes we tell ourselves work won't interfere with our family life.. Sometimes, we imagine certain relationships to be more meaningful than they really are. Occasionally, we put on a show, as if to convince ourselves our secrets aren't really all that terrible. Yes, the game of make-believe is a simple one. You start by lying to yourself... And if you can get others to believe those lies, you win.

　　我们总是幻想某段关系，比实际的更加美好和意义深远，有时我们则掩饰不安，像是一切总在预料之中，并不那么可怕。自欺欺人的游戏，人们乐在其中。只要你说服自己谎言是真的，你就可以让全世界都相信这是真的，然后得到想要的一切。

　　204、 The world is filled with good fathers. How do we recognize them? They're the ones who are missed so terribly that everything falls apart in their absence. They're the ones who love us long before we've even arrived. They're the ones who come looking for us when we can't find our way home. Yes, the world is filled with good fathers. And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives...feel like good mothers.

　　世间好爸爸到处都有。我们又如何辨认呢？他们不在身边时我们会如此地想念到要崩溃，他们在孩子还未出生前就深爱着我们，他们在我们迷失回家的路时找到我们。是的，世间处处有好父亲。而最好的父亲就是那些能让生命中的女人觉得自己是最好的母亲的人。

　　205、 Everyone in the world needs someone they can depend on--be they faithful friends, determined advocates or a loving family. But occasionally in life, the people who we thought would always be there for us, leave. And if that happens, it's amazing the lengths we'll go to to get them back.

　　每一个人都需要依靠——忠实的朋友，坚定的拥护者或者是充满爱意的家庭。但有时候，我们以为会永远守护着我们的人，离去了。真是那样的话，我们就得为找回他们而走上漫漫长路。
