海泽尔是一名十六岁的美丽少女,正处在黄金年代的她本该和其他同龄人一样尽情享受生命和青春带来的快乐与希望,但无情的病魔找上了海泽尔。 海泽尔对生命几乎失去了所有的热情和希望。一次偶然中,海泽尔在癌友互助会中结识了名叫奥古斯都的英俊男孩,他所患的是骨癌。两个境遇相似的年轻人很快就越走越近,他们在一起,探索着上帝留给他们的小小的一片世界,海泽尔也因此看到了未来和希望。
Hello. My name is Hazel Grace Lancaster... and Augustus Waters was the star-crossed①love of my life. Ours was an epic②love story... and I probably won't be able to get more than a sentence out...without disappearing into a puddle of tears.
Like all real love stories... ours will die with us. As it should.You know, I'd kind of hoped that he would be the one eulogizing③me. Because there's really no one else... Yeah, no.
I'm not gonna talk about our love story, because I can't. So, instead, I'm gonna talk about math.
I am not a mathematician, but I do know this. There are infinite④numbers between zero and one. There's point-one,point-one-two, and point-one-one-two, and... and an inf i nite collection of others.
Of course, there is a bigger inf i nite set of numbers between zero and two... or between zero and a million. Some inf i nities are simply bigger than other inf i nities. A writer that we used to like taught us that. You know, I want more numbers... than I'm likely to get.
大家好,我叫海泽尔·葛蕾丝,奥古斯都·沃特是我的不幸恋人。我们的爱情故事很壮烈,我大概只说不到一句就会被泪水淹没。
如同所有真正的爱情故事,这段故事也会随我们逝去,本应如此。我原本希望他能为我演说悼词,因为我没有其他人。
我无法说出我们的爱情故事,所以我要来谈谈数学。
我不是数学家,但我知道一件事,在0与1之间有无限多的数字,有0.1,0.12,0.112……和其他无限多的数字。
当然,有更多无限数字存在于0与2,或0与100万之间,有些无限比其他无限更大。我们曾经喜欢的作家告诉我们的,我想要比我得到的更多的岁月数字。ant more days for Augustus Waters than what he got.
But, my love... I cannot tell you how thankful I am... for our little inf i nity.
Hold on. You gave me a forever... within the numbered days. And for that, l am eternally⑤grateful.
天哪,我希望奥古斯都能拥有更多的时间。
但是,我的爱人,我无法告诉你在我们的小无限里遇到你有多感激。
等等,你在有限的日子里给了我永恒,对于这点,我感激不尽。
