In all things it is better to hope than to despair.

【in ?:l θ??z ??t ?z bet?(r) t? h??p e?n t? d??spe?(r)】

在任何情況下，滿懷希望勝於絕望。

緊要關頭不放棄，絕望就會變希望。

【英語原文】

Last week at a dinner party, the hostess asked me to sit next to Mrs. Rumbold. Mrs. Rumbold was a large unsmiling lady in a tight black dress. She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her . Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating, I tried to make conversation.

A new play is coming to the globe soon, I said. will you be seeing it?

no, she answered.

will you be spending your holidays abroad this year? I asked.

no. she answered.

will you be staying in England? I asked.

no. she answered.

In despair, I asked her whether she was enjoying her dinner.

young man, she answered, if you ate more and talked less, we would both enjoy our dinner!
