《菜根谭》英译（路留一步、味减三分）

径路窄处，留一步与人行；滋味浓的，减三分让人尝；此是涉世一极安乐法。

On a narrow path, step aside one pace so that others may pass. When treated to fine food, offer some of it to your fellow dinners. Such a manner of behaving in society will best ensure a person peace and happiness.

（保罗·怀特 译）

Step aside one pace for others when the path is narrow. Share three-tenths of your food with others when you are fine fed. This is the best way for you to ensure safety and attain happiness in social intercourse.

（周文标 译）
