Lesson 55

    More Is Not Always Better

    Some people have more money than others. However, they're not necessarily happier. On the other hand, some people are as poor as church mice, but they are happy. In a way, these poor people are as rich as kings. Therefore, I always remember my father's words, "More is not always better."

    多未必佳

    有些人比别人有钱。不过，他们未必就比较快乐。另一方面，有些人穷得要命，可他们却很快乐。就某方面而言，这些穷人却像国王一样富有。因此，我始终记得父亲的话：“多未必佳。”
