We should not be too concerned

with our fame or what people

say about us, either bad or good,

because in reality fame could not

make any serious difference

to one’s life. Therefore, we

should have our priorities right,

and seek what is truly of value,

what is truly of meaning to our life,

not just mere fame, which is,

after all, empty sounds. Some

individuals sacrifice many of their

material possessions, wealth and even

their lives to achieve fame. This

type of obsession with seeking

fame is very childish

and is quite foolish.

我們不應該過度在乎自己的名望如何

或別人怎麼說我們, 無論是壞是好,

因為實際上, 名望對我們的

生命不會造成太大的差別.

因此, 我們應該妥善排好優先次序,

尋找自己生命中真正的價值和意義,

不僅僅是名望而已,

到頭來, 名只是空響.

有些人為了名, 願意犧牲他們所擁有的

物質, 財富, 甚至於他們的生命.

這種追求名望的執迷不悟

是非常幼稚且相當愚昧的.
