An optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity.
乐观者在灾祸中看到机会;悲观者在机会中看到灾祸。
Even if he is caught in a bad situation, an optimist believes that something good can happen. On the other hand, even if a good opportuinty presents itself, the pessimist will find fault with it. As the saying goes, “An optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity.”
即使身处险恶的环境中,乐观者仍相信总有好事会发生。反过来说,即使好机会出现,悲观者也会挑剔它。俗云:“乐观者在灾祸中看到机会;悲观者在机会中看到灾祸。”
