管子语录 汉英双解

【原文】人能正静者，筋肕而骨强；能戴大圆者，体乎大方；镜大清者，视乎大明。正静不失，日新其德，昭知天下，通于四极。《心术上》

【汉解】人如能进到正和静的境界，身体也就筋韧而骨强，进而能顶天立地，目视如同清水，观察如同日月。只要不失掉这正与静，其德行将与日俱新，而且能遍知天下事物，以至四方极远的地域。

【英译】When a man is capable of good judgment and remaining quiescent, his muscles become firm and his bones sturdy. Being able to wear on his head the Great Circle, he rests his body on the Great Square. Finding his reflection in the Great Purity, he is comparable to the great luminaries. Since good judgment and quiescence are never lost, he daily renews his Power. He is brilliant in knowing the entire world and penetrates its four extremities.
