《菜根谭》英译（得意早回头、拂心莫停手）

恩里由来生害，故快意时须早回头；败后或反成功，故拂心处切莫放手。

A favour received inevitably brings harm in its wake. When you feel gratified, stop forging ahead, and turn round promptly. It is equally true that accomplishment may follow defeat. Therefore, do not give up halfway when feeling terribly upset.

（保罗·怀特 译）

Given favors are often followed by calamities. Therefore, one should stop seeking more in times of contentment. Failure sometimes indicates success to come. Therefore, one should keep going on even if suffering setbacks.
