[摘录]宇宙的哲思
We go about our daily lives understanding almost nothing of the world.
生于此处却不知此处,
We give little thought of the machinery that generates the sunlight and makes life possible.
日光倾城,万物生长,又是为何?
To the gravity that glues us to the earth that would otherwise send us spinning off into space.
若没有大地的拥抱,我们早已消失于茫茫宇宙之中,
Or to the atoms that which we are made.. and on who’s stability we fundamentally depend.
若没有原子之稳定,我们亦不复存在,
Few of us spend much time wondering why nature is the way it is.
无人问天地变换,斗转星移,是为何故?Where the cosmos came from.
宇宙又是源于何处,
Whether it was always there.
它是否无始无终?
If time will one day flow backward.
时间若愿意倒流,
Or whether there are ultimate limits to what humans can know.
我们的认知是否还会有局限?
What is the smallest piece of matter.
世间最渺小之物又是什么?
Why we remember the past and not the future.
滚滚长江,却只留有过去,不知未来,
And why there is a universe.
浩淼宇宙,为何我们在此相遇?
