天下事有難易乎?為之，則難者亦易矣;不為，則易者亦難矣。人之為學，有難易乎?學之，則難者亦易矣;不學，則易者亦難矣。
There is nothing difficult for us to do in the world. If we do it，the difficult thing will be easy;if we don’t，the easy thing will be difficult. There is nothing difficult for us to learn. If we learn it，the difficult thing will be easy;if we don’t，the easy thing will be difficult.
蜀之鄙有二僧：其一貧，其一富。貧者語于富者曰：“吾欲之南海，何如?”
富者曰：“子何恃而往?”
曰：“吾一瓶一缽足矣�！�
富者曰：“吾數年來欲買舟而下，猶未能也。子何恃而往!”
There lived two monks in the western frontier of Szechuan, one poor and the other rich. One day the poor monk said to the rich one.
“I want to go to Nanhai，what do you think?”
“On what do you depend for going there?”asked the rich monk.
“A bottle and a basin will suffice me，”answered the other.
“Well，I have been meaning to go there by boat for many years，but failed. How could you go without any support!”
越明年，貧者自南海還，以告富者，富者有慚色。
西蜀之去南海，不知幾千里也。僧富者不能至(，而貧者至焉。人之立志，顧不如蜀鄙之僧哉!(彭端淑)
After one year the poor monk returned from Nanhai，and told his story to the rich one，who was ashamed to hear it.
It is so many thousand miles from the western frontier of Szechuan to Nanhai. The rich monk failed to go，but the poor one went. Couldn’t we make up our minds to do something as the poor monk of the western frontier of Szechuan did?
