Mimi's Diary 咪咪夫人愛樂活

⚠️NETFLIX是很危險的選擇⚠️

鄰居問要不要一起共購，我掙扎3秒後說好。

對於從小是電視兒童的我來說，天天HBO是很正常的。

懷孕生子後到現在13年，為了不讓孩子迷上電視，取消第四台、取消MOD，現在工作、家庭、社團、運動，其實也沒時間看電視，不過因為久聞其中的原創劇精彩，拗不過好奇心，註冊看了「王冠The Crown」。

也許是因為在英國唸書待過一陣子，一直都很喜歡唐頓莊園，英式的幽默拘謹、一絲不苟的態度讓我很喜歡，因為英國人有的美德我好像都很缺乏😆

這齣劇據說是Netflix原創劇中成本最高、鉅資打造的影集，場景、服裝、對話、演員都相當考究，聽說英國女皇本人也看這齣劇呢！

果然好看，在位最久的女皇傳奇故事中，原來英女皇這麼熱衷賽馬，家族中鞭長莫及的還不只是現代的梅根與哈利，皇室限制、規定一大堆，家族成員問題層出不窮，穩如泰山的就只有英國女皇。

劇情中有許多對話都是莎士比亞的名句，前一個人講半句，後一個人就可以接完，跟我們「床前明月光，疑是地上霜，舉頭望明月，低頭思故鄉。」差不多意思。

安排的對話跟劇情很搭，有些句子實在喜歡，還要暫停查資料、單字，搞的好像在上英文課🤪這個劇也太精實了，佩服編劇。

截取一部分筆記：

哈姆雷特Hamlet

When sorrows come, they come not single spies, - but in battalions.【當悲傷來臨的時候，不是單個來的，而是成群結隊的】

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.【其實世事並無好壞，全看你們如何去想。】

仲夏夜之夢

Things base and vile, holding no quantity, love can transpose to from and dignity: love looks not with the eyes, but with mind. 

卑賤和劣行在愛情看來都不算數，都可以被轉化成美滿和莊嚴：愛情不用眼睛辨別，而是用心靈來判斷愛，用的不是眼睛，而是心。

威尼斯商人

truth will come to light; murder cannot be hid long; a man’s son may, but at the length truth will out 真相會大白；謀殺隱瞞不了多久；殺人兇手總會被找到。水落石出。

一報還一報

O, it is excellent to have a giant’s strength; but it is tyrannous to use it like a giant. 有巨人的力量固然好，但像巨人那樣濫用力量就是一種殘暴行為。

特洛伊羅斯與克瑞西達

Take but degree away, untune that string, and, hark, what discord follows! 

沒有了紀律，就像琴弦繃斷，聽吧！刺耳的噪音隨之而來！

天路歷程 THE PILGRIM'S PROGRESS.

to my Father's; and though with great difficulty I have got hither, yet now I do not repent me of all the troubles I have been at to arrive where I am. My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that I have fought His battles who will now be my rewarder. When the day that he must go hence was come, many accompanied him to the river side, into which as he went he said, "Death, where is thy sting ?" And as he went down deeper, he said, "Grave, where is thy vic- tory?"
