泰戈尔：《飞鸟集》之八
If you think you are beaten, you are;
如果你认为你败了，那你就一败涂地；
If you think you dare not, you don't
如果你认为你不敢，那你就会退缩畏葸；
If you want to win but think you can't;
如果你想赢但是认为你不能；
It's almost a cinch you won't.
那么毫无疑问你就会失利。
If you think you'll lose, you're lost;
那么毫无疑问你就会失利。
For out of the world we find
如果你认为你输了，你就输了；
Success begins with a fellow's will;
因为我们发现人世间
It's all in a state of mind.
成功从一个人的意志开始；
Life's battles don't always go
成功是一种心态。
To the stronger and faster man,
生活之战中，
胜利并非总是属于更强和更快的人，
But sooner or later the man who wins
胜利者终究是
Is the man who thinks he can.
认为自己能行的人。
