人生は、“悲惨”か“みじめ”のどちらかだ

本日の名言☆ウディ・アレン監督「アニー・ホール」のセリフから

人生は、“悲惨”か“みじめ”のどちらかだ。“悲惨”というのは目が見えない病気とか、身体が不自由とか、どうにもならない苦労を背負っている人々のこと。それ以外が“みじめ”。だからみじめなのは幸運なんだ。感謝すべきだよ。
“I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories. The horrible are like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people, crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable.”
