3.5 Hypocritical friendship is like your shadow; when you are in the sun, it will closely follow you, but once you go into the shadow, it will leave you. 虚伪的友谊就如你的影子; 当你处在阳光下时, 它会紧紧地跟着你, 但你一旦走到阴暗处时, 它立刻就会离开你。
3.8 When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us. 当幸福之门关上了, 另一扇门也会为你打开; 但就是我们一直在意关上的那扇门, 而没有发现早已打开等待着我们的这一扇门。
