When Mr. Cha Buduo was about to breathe his last, he uttered intermittently in one breath, "Live or die, it's about ... about ... the same...Whatever we do ...it's OK ... to be ... just ... just about right .... Why...why...take it...so seriously?" As soon as he finished this pet phrase of his, he stopped breathing.
差不多先生差不多要死的时候,一口气断断续续地说道:“活人同死人也……差……差不多,……凡事只要……差……差……不多……就……好了,……何……何……必……太……太认真呢?”他说完了这句格言,方才绝气了。
After Mr. Cha Buduo's death, people all praised him for his way of seeing through things and his philosophical approach to life. They said that he refused to take things seriously all his life and that he was never calculating or particular about personal gains or losses. So they called him a virtuous man and honored him.
他死后,大家都很称赞差不多先生样样事情看得破,想得通;大家都说他一生不肯认真,不肯算帐,不肯计较,真是一位有德行的人。
His name has spread far and wide and become more and more celebrated with the passing of time. Innumerable people have come to follow his example, so that everybody has become a Mr. Cha Buduo. But lo, China will hence be a nation of lazybones!
他的名誉越传越远,越久越大。无数无数的人都学他的榜样。于是人人都成了一个差不多先生。——然而中国从此就成为一个懒人国了。
