这样的权力使小王子惊叹不已。
Such power was a thing for the little prince to marvel at.
如果掌握了这样的权力，那么，他一天就不只是看到四十三次日落，
If he had been master of such complete authority, he would have been able to watch the sunset, not forty-four times in one day,
而可以看到七十二次，甚至一百次，或是二百次日落，也不必要去挪动椅子了！
but seventy-two, or even a hundred, or even two hundred times, with out ever having to move his chair.
由于他想起了他那被遗弃的小星球，心里有点难过，
And because he felt a bit sad as he remembered his little planet which he had for saken,
他大胆地向国王提出了一个请求：“我想看日落，请求您…命令太阳落山吧…”
he plucked up his courage to ask the king a favor: "I should like to see a sunset... do me that kindness...Order the sun to set..."
如果我命令一个将军象一只蝴蝶那样从这朵花飞到那朵花，或者命令他写作一个悲剧剧本或者变一只海鸟，
If I ordered a general to fly from one flower to another like a butterfly, or to write a tragic drama, or to change himself into a sea bird,
而如果这位将军接到命令不执行的话，那么，是他不对还是我不对呢？
and if the general31 did not carry out the order that he had received, which one of us would be in the wrong?
国王问道。“将军，还是自己？”
The king demanded. "The general, or myself?"
“那当然是您的不对。”小王子肯定地回答。
"You," said the little prince firmly.
“一点也不错，”国王接着说，“向每个人提出的要求应该是他们所能做到的。
"Exactly. One much require from each one the duty which each one can perform," the king went on.
权威首先应该建立在理性的基础上。
Accepted authority rests first of all on reason.
如果命令你的老百姓去投海，他们非起来革命不可。

If you ordered your people to go and throw themselves into the sea, they would rise up in revolution.
我的命令是合理的，所以我有权要别人服从。
I have the right to require obedience because my orders are reasonable.
“那么我提出的日落呢？”小王子一旦提出一个问题，他是不会忘记这个问题的。
"Then my sunset?" the little prince reminded him: for he never forgot a question once he had asked it.
日落么，你会看到的。
You shall have your sunset.
我一定要太阳落山，不过按照我的统治科学，我得等到条件成熟的时候。
I shall command it. But, according to my science of government, I shall wait until conditions are favorable.
小王子问道：“这要等到什么时候呢？”
国王在回答之前，首先翻阅了一本厚厚的日历，嘴里慢慢说道：“嗯！嗯！”
日落大约…大约…在今晚七时四十分的时候！

你将看到我的命令一定会被服从的。

小王子又打起哈欠来了。

他遗憾没有看到日落。

他对国王说：“他有点厌烦了，”

我没有必要再呆在这儿了。

我要走了。

大家好，我是潘妮，欢迎来到古典智慧拾贝。在这里，我主要与大家分享中国古代的思想家的智慧。

今天这句话来自老子的《清静经》，是老子道家的智慧。

上士不争，下士好争。意思是有上等智慧的人，是没有争夺的心的，只有最下等最没有智慧的人，才一天到晚与人争夺。

我第一次看到这句话的时候，非常震撼。因为我们现代人，大部分都已经习惯了在各种场合与人争一个高低。不管是争夺有限的物质，还是在意见和他人不一样的时候争强好胜，都是古代圣贤最不会做的事情。老子不愧是圣人，只有不与人争，才能保持清静的心，保持一种自在和自由。这其实是传统中国文化的核心部分。

对此，你是怎么想的呢？谢谢你的收听，我们下次见。

Hello everyone, my name is Penny, welcome to this channel. In this channel, I will share with you wisdoms of Chinese thinkers and philosophers from the past.

Today's phrase comes from Lao Tzu, from the wisdom of Taoism. 

The highly respected men don’t argue and contest, the lowly respected men like to argue and contest. It means that people with superior wisdom do not compete or fight, and only least intelligent people compete with others all the time.

The first time I saw this sentence, it was a shock. Because most of us modern people have been used to competing with people on various occasions. Whether it is competing for limited material resources, or competing to win when opinions differ, these are the last things that ancient sages do. Only by not fighting with others can we maintain a quiet mind and keep our hearts truly free and at ease. This is actually a core part of traditional Chinese wisdom.

What do you think about this? Thanks for your listening and see you next time.

古典智慧拾贝 - 上士不争

El lunfardo es un conjunto de expresiones usadas en la zona del Río de la Plata, que al emplearse en el habla cotidiana suenan bastante informales. Se comenzó a utilizar en Buenos Aires en el siglo XX y ha tomado palabras de muchas otras lenguas debido a varias inmigraciones europeas. 

Muchos me preguntan cómo es hablar en lunfardo. Y bueno, este argot suena más o menos así: 

En el LABURO no se puede usar esta jerga porque es muy coloquial. Pero sí es muy común escucharla entre CHABONES que son amigos, ya sea por la MATINA esperando el BONDI, o por la noche en cualquier BOLICHE, o en un bar tomando unas BIRRAS acompañando un buen MORFI.
Entender el lunfardo puede ser un QUILOMBO al principio, especialmente si nos invade la FIACA al momento de aprender. Pero si estamos en contacto con cualquier PIBE que nos BANQUE en el aprendizaje y que no sea un CHANTA, aprenderemos más rápido.
Si estamos en Buenos Aires, podremos practicar el uso de esta jerga cuando vamos a MORFAR un CHORIPÁN con amigos, mientras CHAMUYAMOS un rato, hablamos de la GUITA que ganamos LABURANDO, y, si el mesero es un CAPO, también podremos practicar con él. 
Sin embargo, deberemos tener cuidado con los CHORROS en la calle, especialmente al momento de GARPAR, ya que, si bien pueden tener buena PINTA, pueden AFANARNOS el dinero. Si esto ocurre es una MACANA, porque deberemos hacer la denuncia en la estación policial, donde los oficiales siempre están HASTA LAS MANOS y pueden estar un poco CHINCHUDOS.
De todos modos, visitar Buenos Aires y poner en práctica la comprensión del lunfardo es una MASA, y no hay que BAJONEARSE si resulta un poco difícil al principio.
