| I was thinking about my place in the universe, and about my first thought about what infinity might mean, when I was a child. |
我在童年时,曾思考我在这茫茫宇宙中的地位, 和我关于 “无限” 的含义 的最初想法。 |
|
infinity:n.无穷;无限大;无限距;
|
| And I thought that if time could reach forwards and backwards infinitely , doesn't that mean that every point in time is really infinitely small, and therefore somewhat meaningless. |
我想:如果时间能够 向前后无限延伸, 那是不是就意味着 时间里的每一点都无限地小？ 因此,也就有些微不足道？ |
|
infinitely:adv.无限地;极其;
|
| So we don't really have a place in the universe, as far as on a time line. |
所以说,只要我们身处在时间线上, 我们在这宇宙中真的没有什么地位可言。 |
|
as far as:至于…;
|
| But nothing else does either. |
不过其他一切也是如此。 |
| Therefore every moment really is the most important moment that's ever happened, including this moment right now. |
换句话说,每个时刻其实都是最重要的时刻, 包括现在这一时刻。 |
| And so therefore this music you're about to hear is maybe the most important music you'll ever hear in your life. |
所以,你将要听到的这段音乐 可能也是你生命中 听到的最重要的音乐。 |
