生存还是毁灭

字幕原文

Polonius arranged for Ophelia to meet Hamlet, 波洛涅斯安排奥菲莉亚去见哈姆雷特，

while he and the king hid to listen. 自己则和国王躲在一旁偷听。

But Hamlet came in alone, lost in thought, 但哈姆雷特独自走了进来，若有所思，

and spoke the most famous words he would ever say. 说出了他这辈子最广为人知的那段话。

"To be, or not to be, that is the question." “生存还是毁灭，这是个问题。”

Was it nobler to suffer life's troubles in silence, 究竟是默默忍受人生的苦难更为高贵，

or to fight them and end them? 还是奋起反抗彻底了结它们？

To die would be like sleeping, 死亡就像是睡着了一样，

and a sleep that ended all heartache would be welcome. 而一场能了结所有心痛的沉睡，自然求之不得。

"To sleep, perchance to dream. “睡去，也许还会做梦。

Ay, there's the rub." 哎，麻烦就在这儿。”

Who knew what dreams might come in the sleep of death? 谁知道在死亡的沉睡里，又会做些什么梦呢？

That fear, he realized, kept everyone going: 他意识到，正是这种恐惧让所有人继续熬着活下去：

the dread of the undiscovered country, from which no traveler returns. 那是对未知国度的畏惧，凡是去那里的旅人，没有一个能回得来。

"Thus conscience does make cowards of us all." “就这样，思前想后让我们都变成了懦夫。”

We often fear the unknown more than the pain we already know. 比起已知的痛苦，我们往往更害怕未知的一切。

Then he looked up. 这时，他抬起头。

Ophelia was standing right in front of him. 奥菲莉亚正站在他的面前。
