她既是一名飞行员又是一个母亲，然而，安妮可能最为世人留下印象的还是作为一名励志作家，她的最著名的著作，《大海的礼物》，写于她在岛上隐居时期。

More than a pilot or a mother, though, Anne is probably best remembered as an inspirational writer. Her most popular book, written while on an island retreat, was Gift from the Sea.

我在什么地方读到过——那个人写的不是关于爬山人的事，而是水手的故事——大海赐予的惟一的礼物就是经受得起残酷无情的击打，而且偶尔也是感受顽强的机遇。

I read somewhere-and the person who wrote this was not a mountaineer but a sailor-that the sea's only gifts are harsh blows and, occasionally, the chance to feel strong.

而事实上，我后来在一本书(由那相同的水手第一次引用的话，抒写了大海赐予的礼物)上发现的差不多就是这几句话，现在感觉十分亲切。

And, in fact, I later found almost those exact words in a book that is now dear to me, by the same sailor, cited by the first man, who had written of the gifts of the sea.
