“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'”
— Muhammad Ali, Boxer
「我恨训练的每一分,但我说:『不要放弃,现在受苦然后以冠军身分度过在余生。』」– 穆罕默德‧阿里 (拳击手)
“suffer” 是「受苦」,为动词,如:At least she died suddenly and didn’t suffer any pain. (至少她是突然过世而没感受任何痛苦。) “the rest of someone’s life” 是「某人的余生」。”live as… ” 是「以… (方式) 生活」。
穆罕默德‧阿里 (1942- ) 是美国前拳击手,曾三次赢得世界重量级拳王宝座,绰号「最棒的」(The Greatest),被认做史上最杰出的拳击手之一,他描述自己异于传统的打斗方式为「像蝴蝶般飘动,像蜜蜂般叮刺。」(float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.)
