Whether you are kissing up to your boss or negotiating with your creditors, this is simply not the life you imagined for yourself.

无论你是在讨好老板还是在与贷款人谈判，这都不是你自己想要的生活。

Life's greatest shame is ass-kissing. Life's most dangerous position is greed. Life is the most trouble for the fame and fortune.

人生最大的羞辱是献媚。人生最危险的境地是贪婪。人生最烦恼的是争名利。

To me, love which isn't just kissing and touching or eating for survive, is the desire not to die and a kind of heroic dream in the exhausted life.

在我看来，爱情不仅仅是亲吻和触碰，或者纯粹为了生存，更是在这让人筋疲力尽人生中一种关于永生和英雄主义梦想的追求。

Many a gentleman would have risked his life for the honor of kissing that mysterious hand.
