Life is no ‘brief candle’ to me

沈怡是尹仲容的摯友沈雲龍編著《尹仲容先生年譜初稿》收他的"跋" 
文末引蕭伯納的:"
他忙碌得不想到死  他為生活的目的而欣賞
      生活不是殘燭 而是光亮的火炬
把握著這一煞那
       要使它盡量發光傳遞給後一代!"*



* 翻譯有點改動原文可能是
I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake.
Life is no ‘brief candle’ to me. It is sort of a splendid torch which I have a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it over to future generations”.
