我如今也到了人生的岔路口，我總是清楚該走哪條路，無(wú)一例外，我都清楚，但我從沒(méi)走過(guò)。知道為什么嗎？因?yàn)樘麐岆y了。

Now I have come to the crossroads in my life. I always knew what the right path was. Without exception, I knew, but I never took it. You know why? It was too damn hard.

有些人一分鐘就過(guò)盡了一生。

Some people live a lifetime in a minute.

跳舞和人生不一樣，無(wú)所謂錯(cuò)不錯(cuò)，簡(jiǎn)單就是探戈的魅力，哪怕步子亂成一團(tuán)，跳下去就好了。

No mistakes in the tango, not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, get all tangled up, just tango on.

還過(guò)分？你知道我是誰(shuí)嗎？我什么沒(méi)見(jiàn)識(shí)過(guò)？我可不是一直瞎，我也有過(guò)見(jiàn)識(shí)，比他們還小的小伙子們，胳膊被扯下，腿被炸掉，但這些都不及殘缺的靈魂，觸目驚心，靈魂殘缺了可沒(méi)法補(bǔ)。

Out of order? Who the hell you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen. Boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But there is nothin' like the sight of an amputated spirit. There is no prosthetic for that.

今天是個(gè)美好的日子，無(wú)論你想做什么，趕上好日子快去做。

It's a lovely day today So, whatever you gotta do You got a lovely day to do it in that's true.

世界上有兩種人：一種直面困難勇于負(fù)責(zé)的人和去找靠山的人，還是靠山比較好。

There are two kinds of people in this world: those who stand up and face the music, and those who run for cover. Cover's better.

沒(méi)有比精神殘廢更可怕的東西,因?yàn)闆](méi)有義肢可裝 。

There's nothing worse than an amputated spirit, cause there is no prosthesis for that.

這部電影最后有個(gè)童話般的結(jié)局：

查理沒(méi)有被處分開(kāi)除；退伍軍人獲得了愛(ài)情。

正如茨威格所說(shuō)的：

歷史是個(gè)冷血的老人，他從不將自己的時(shí)間浪費(fèi)在道德評(píng)價(jià)方面，只是冷眼旁觀著事態(tài)的發(fā)展，記錄下那些功成名就的人和事。

那些有良知者的奮斗絕不會(huì)是永遠(yuǎn)的徒勞。精神領(lǐng)域內(nèi)的所有努力，就算無(wú)法在短時(shí)間內(nèi)顯露效用，也絕不會(huì)就此蒸發(fā)在廣漠的時(shí)空當(dāng)中。

在現(xiàn)實(shí)世界中，這名沉默的學(xué)生，可能不會(huì)遇到這樣一位仗義的退伍中校；就算遇到了，可能也難以避免壞的結(jié)局，除非他選擇走另一條容易的路。

但是，哪怕他由此成為人生路上的“失敗者”，他的靈魂還是會(huì)在時(shí)間中閃光。
