Edward Scissorhands

剪刀手爱德华

(jiǎndāoshǒu àidéhuá )

1. I love you not for who you are, but for who I am with you.

我爱你不是因为你是谁,而是我在你面前可以是谁。

(wǒ ài nǐ bùshì yīnwéi nǐ shì shuí,érshì wǒ zài nǐ miànqián kěyǐ shì shuí. )

2. It is so easy to commit embarrassing blunders, but etiquette tells us just what is expected of us and guards us from all humiliation and discomfort.

我们难免会犯尴尬的错误,但礼仪能使我们有所进退,避免陷入失礼及不安。

(wǒmen nánmiǎn huì fàn ɡānɡà de cuòwù,dàn lǐyí nénɡ shǐ wǒmen yǒusuǒ jìntuì,bìmiǎn xiànrù shīlǐ jí bùān.  )
