  "My wife got sick. She was constantly nervous because of problems at work, personal life, her failures and problems with children.

  She has lost 30 pounds and weighed about 90 pounds in her 35 years. She got very skinny, and was constantly crying. She was not a happy woman. She had suffered from continuing headaches, heart pain and jammed nerves in her back and ribs.

  She did not sleep well, falling asleep only in the morning and got tired very quickly during the day. Our relationship was on the verge of break up.

  Her beauty was leaving her somewhere, she had bags under her eyes, she was poking her head, and stopped taking care of herself. She refused to shoot the films and rejected any role.

  I lost hope and thought that we'll get divorced soon…But then I decided to act on it.

  After all I've got the most beautiful woman on the earth.

  She is the idol of more than half of men and women on earth, and I was the one allowed to fall asleep next to her and to hug her shoulders.

  I began to pamper her with flowers, kisses and compliments. I surprised her and pleased her every minute. I gave her lots of gifts and lived just for her. I spoke in public only about her. I incorporated all themes in her direction. I praised her in front of her own and our mutualfriends.

  You won't believe it, but she blossomed. She became even better than before. She gained weight, was no longer nervous and she loved me even more than ever. I had no clue that she CAN love that much. And then I realized one thing: The woman is the reflection of her man. If you love her to the point of madness, she will become it."

  - Brad Pitt

  西方国家名人故事传记(二):正直的林肯

  Lincoln was delighted to advocate the cases of those whom he knew to be wronged, but he would not defend the cause of the guilty.

  If he discovered in the course of a trial that he was on the wrong side, he lost all interest, and ceased to make any exertion.

  Once, while engaged in a prosecution, he discovered that his client's cause was not a good one, and he refused to make the plea. His associate, who was less scrupulous(小心谨慎的), made the plea and obtained a decision in their favor. The fee was nine hundred dollars, half of which was tendered(偿付) to Mr. Lincoln, but he refused to accept a single cent of it.

  His honesty was strongly illustrated by the way he kept his accounts with his law-partner. When he had taken a fee in the latter's absence, he put one half of it into his own pocket, and laid the other half carefully away, labeling it "Billy," the name by which he familiarly addressed his partner. When asked why be did not make a record of the amount and, for the time being, use the whole, Mr. Lincoln answered, "Because I promised my mother never to use money belonging to another person."

  林肯非常乐意为那些他认为受到冤屈的人辩护,但是他却拒绝为那些确实有罪的人辩护。

  如果在审判中发现自己的立场错误,就立刻都案件失去兴趣,不再辩护。

  他参与了一起起诉案件。当他发现他的客户动机不良时,便拒绝为其申辩。他的一位做事不太谨慎的同事参与了辩护,并得到对他们有利的判决。辩护费为900美元,这位同事把其中的一半给了林肯,但是林肯一分钱也没拿。

  林肯的诚实在下面的例子里得到最好的证明。他与他的伙伴记有详细的账目。但他的伙伴不在时,他仅拿走所得收入的一半,把另一半仔细地保存,写上同伴的名字:“贝利”。当被问到他这样做的原因,林肯回答道:“因为我曾经答应我的妈妈永远不拿属于别人的钱。”

  西方国家名人故事传记(三):He Never Missed a Game 他从来没有错过一场比赛

  Bob Richards, the former pole-vault champion, shares a moving story about a skinny young boy who loved football with all his heart.

  Practice after practice, he eagerly gave everything he had. But being half the size of the other boys, he got absolutely nowhere. At all the games, this hopeful athlete sat on the bench and hardly ever played.

  This teenager lived alone with his father, and the two of them had a very special relationship. Even though the son was always On the bench, his father was always in the stands cheering. He never missed a game. This young man was still the smallest of the class when he entered high school. But his father continued to encourage him but also made it very clear that he did not have to play football if he didn't want to.

  But the young man loved football and decided1 to hang in there He was determined2 to try his best at every practice, and perhaps he'd get to play when he became a senior. All through high school he never missed a practice nor a game but remained a bench-warmer all four years. His faithful father was always in the stands, always with words of encouragement for him. When the young man went to college, he decided to try out for the football team as a "walk-on." Everyone was sure he could never make the cut, but he did.

  The coach admitted that he kept him on the roster3(花名册) because he always puts his heart and soul to every practice, and at the same time, provided the other members with the spirit and hustle4 they badly needed.

  The news that he had survived the cut thrilled him so much that he rushed to the nearest phone and called his father. His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games. This persistent5 young athlete never missed practice during his four years at college, but he never got to play in a game.

  It was the end of his senior football season, and as he trotted6 onto the practice field shortly before the big playoff game, the coach met him with a telegram. The young man read the telegram and he became deathly silent. Swallowing hard, he mumbled7 to the coach, "My father died this morning. Is it all right if I miss practice today?" The coach put his arm gently around his shoulder and said, "Take the rest of the week off, son. And don't even plan to come back to the game on Saturday."

  Saturday arrived, and the game was not going well. In the third quarter,when the team was ten points behind, a silent young man quietly slipped into the empty locker8 room and put on his football gear9. As he ran onto the sidelines, the coach and his players were astounded10 to see their faithful teammate back so soon. "Coach, please let me play. I've just got to play today," said the young man. The coach pretended not to hear him. There was no way he wanted his worst player in this close playoff game. But the young man persisted11, and finally feeling sorry for the kid, the coach gave in. "All right," he said."You can go in." Before long, the coach, the players and everyone in the stands could not believe their eyes. This little unknown, who had never played before was doing everything right. The opposing team could not stop him. He ran, he passed, blocked, and tackled12 like a star. His team began to triumph. The score was soon tied. In the closing seconds of the game, this kid intercepted13 a pass and ran all the way for the winning touchdown. The fans broke loose. His teammates hoisted14 him onto their shoulders. Such cheering you never heard.

  Finally, after the stands had emptied and the team had showered and left the locker room, the coach noticed that this young man was sitting quietly in the corner all alone The coach came to him and said, " Kid, I can't believe it. You were fantastic! Tell me what got into you? How did you do it?"

  He looked at the coach, with tears in his eyes, and said, "Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know that my dad was blind?" The young man swallowed hard and forced a smile, "Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could see me play, and I wanted to show him I could do it!"

  Like the athlete's father, God is always there cheering for us. He's always reminding us to go on. He's even offering us His hand for He knows what is best, and is willing to give us what we need and not simply what we want. GOD has never missed a single game. What a joy to know that life is meaningful if lived for the Highest. Live for HIM for He's watching us in the game of life!
