P35
德国诗人歌德，以一首小诗概括人生走向成熟与完美的经历：“少年，我爱你的美貌；壮年，我爱你的言谈；老年，我爱你的德行。”
中国现代诗人刘大白也有一首赞美人生的诗：“少年是艺术的/一件一件地创作/壮年是工程的/一件一件地建筑/老年是历史的/一页一页地翻阅。”
诗坛老将臧克家，写有一首小诗这样表现旧中国农民穷苦悲惨的生活：“儿子，在土里洗澡；父亲，在土里流汗；爷爷，在土里埋葬。”
女作家尤今，则通过三辈人对饮料的不同喜爱来反映现代生活：“儿子喜欢汽水，他只尝甜味；父亲爱喝咖啡，这里亦苦亦甜；爷爷要喝白开水，因为它极淡极淡。”
学者王鼎均，对人生三部曲更有其独特的体味：“上帝把幼小的我们给了父母，把青壮的我们给了国家社会，到了老年才把我们还给了我们自己。”
文如其人，不同职业的人，对人生的感悟也不相同。
摄影师说：“少年是感光，壮年是定影，到了老年来放大。”
社会学家说：“少年想成家，壮年要离家，老年盼回家。”
美学研究者说：“少年审女美在其态，壮年审女美在其情，老年审女美在其心。”
人生三部曲描绘出生活的五光十色，人生三部曲品尝着生活的酸甜苦辣，人生三部曲显示着生活的无限情趣。
附部分英文：
The Trilogy of a Human Life
Goethe, the famous German poet,wrote in a poem that summarized
the process of a human life going to maturity and
perfection:“Youth I love your beauty；Prime of life,I admire
yourdiscourse；Old age,I adore your
virtue.”
Liu Da-bai,a Chinese poet, wrote a poem in praise of the human
trilogy:“Youth is full of artistic
imagination, When at works can be created one
after another； Prime of life is given to
engineering,When buildings are erected here and there；Old age is
like a great volume of history,When one can browse it page by
page.”
Zang ke-jia,another Chinese poet of great popularity,wrote a little
poem to depict the miserable life of the Chinese peasants in the
past:“The son ,Bathed in dust；The father,Sweating over the
soil；The grandfather, Buried under the
ground.”
Wang ding-jun, a learned man,has his own observation about human
life:“When we were children，God give us to our parents；When we
came of age,God left us to the society；When we grew Old,God
returned us to ourselves.”
