有一同事说《死亡诗社》是他有生以来看过的最好的十部影片之一。这是一很好的片子，但人各有好，我更喜欢柯恩兄弟或姜文拍的那种，带些梦幻色彩，带些悬念的影片。比如柯恩的那部《哥们你在哪里？》我就连看了两遍，非常喜欢。《死亡诗社》是一个古老的、关于守旧与创新、现实与浪漫、新人与老人两股势力二元较量的影片。毫无疑问它最大的特色在里面包含了一些具有意义非凡的死亡诗社经典台词，时常在脑海出现。张承辉博客收集了一些台词在这里奉献给爱好这部励志电影的人们。

一、及时行乐，让你的生命超越凡俗
《船长，我的船长》Oh ,captain ,my captain!
《劝少年们珍惜时光》及时采撷你的花蕾／旧时光一去不回/今天尚在微笑的花朵／明天变得风中枯萎(丁尼生)
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may/Old time is still a-flying/And this same flowers that smiles today/Tomorrow will be dying
因为信不信由你，这个房间里的每个人，总有一天都要停止呼吸，僵冷，死亡。我要你们向前到这儿来，细细玩味过去的面孔，你们经过这儿无数次，但从未真正看过他们，和你的差异并不大，对吧？同样的发型，和你们一样精力旺盛，和你们一样不可一世，世界都在他们的掌握之中，他们认为注定要成就大事，和大多数的你们一样，他们的双眼充满了希望，和你们一样。他们是否虚度时光，到最后一无所成？因为各位所见到的……这些男孩现在都已化为尘土了，如果你们仔细倾听，便能听见他们在低声耳语，附耳过去，仔细听，听见了？CARPE..。听见了吗？CARPE… CARPE DIEM 及时行乐，孩子们，让你的生命超越凡俗。
Becuase believe or not, each one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die. I’d like you to step forward of you and peruse some of the faces from the past. They’re not that different from you , are they? Same haircuts.
Full of hormones. Just like you. Invincible just like you fell. The world is their oyster. They belive they’re destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives evenone iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentelman, these boys are now fertilising daffodils.
But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it ? Carpe…hear it?…Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day, boys, make your lives extrordinary。
二、诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情，才是我们活着的意义。
《英语诗歌五百年》序言：要完全理解诗歌，我们首先必须了解它的格调、韵律、修辞手法，然后提两个问题：第一，诗主题如何艺术地实现；第二，诗主题的重要性。
To fully understand poetry, we must first be fluent with its meter, rhyme and figures of speech, then ask two questions: 1) How artfully has the objective of the poem been rendered and 2) How important is that objective?
我们不是在接水管。We’re not laying pipe。
惟有在梦中，人们才是真正自由的。Only in their dreams can men be truly free。
学会自己思考，学会欣赏文学和语言。不管别人怎么说，文学和语言的确能改变世界。
Learn to think for yourselves again. No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world。
我们读诗、写诗并不是因为它们好玩，而是因为我们是人类的一分子，而人类是充满激情的。没错，医学、法律、商业、工程，这些都是崇高的追求，足以支撑人的一生。但诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情，这些才是我们活着的意义。
We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering — these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love — these are what we stay alive for。
(梭罗)死亡诗人致力于吸取生命的精华。
The Dead Poets was dedicated to “sucking the marrow out of life”。
我们是一群浪漫主义者。我们不仅仅是念诗，诗从我们舌间滑落，就像蜜糖。情绪高涨，女人亢奋，灵魂驰骋。
We weren’t a Greek organization. We were Romantics. We didn’t just read poetry, we let it drip from our tongues like honey. Spirits soared, women swooned and gods were created。
(梭罗)我步入丛林／因为我希望生活得有意义／我希望活得深刻／吸取生命中所有的精华／把非生命的一切都击溃／以免当我生命终结／发现自己从没有活过
I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.To put to rout all that was not life, and not, when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived。
(丁尼生)来吧，我的朋友／寻找更新世界尚为时不晚／我决心已定，要驶过夕阳尽头／尽管我们不再有昔日的伟力，可以震天撼地／我们仍有着，同样的英雄的心／时间和命运，使它衰老／但坚强意志仍在／让我们去奋斗，去探索，去发现／永不屈服
(Alfred Lord Tennyson)Come my friends, ‘Tis not too late to seek a newer world for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset. And though we are not now that strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;– One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield。
