“the gods cannot help those who don’t seize opportunities.” "自助者天助(天助自助者)" - {怀疑弄错人了} Explanation: 在网站查了一下,这句被很多人和“自助者天助(天助自助者)”相对应,但“自助者天助(天助自助者)”并不是孔子说了。 我对孔子没有研究。仅从网络搜索结果进行分析,供参考。 http://www.google.cn/search?num=100&complete=1&hl=zh-CN&neww... 上面这个搜索是带中文搜索的,把中文去掉,结果会多不少,我也大致看过,大多数结果还是这句。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2007-11-18 16:49:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 对了,好象问题中也没提到孔子,看来我头晕了。 |

“the gods cannot help those who don’t seize opportunities.” 上天不会帮助错失良机者 Explanation: "自助者天助(天助自助者)" - {怀疑弄错人了}(answered by Ibone) is best tranlated as "God helps those who help themselves". I'm not sure "the gods cannot help those who don’t seize opportunities" is the best translation of "自助者天助(天助自助者)" in the first place. |
