老人与海经典语录语录
题主能这样想,说明是好事,说明题主人生没什么挫折,过的非常幸福。
《老人与海》这本书,作者用平铺直叙的手法来写作,语言上面没有高潮起伏,所以你会觉得它, 又臭又长、 自言自语 、 磨磨叽叽、也没干什么 、 啰嗦起来真的像紧箍咒 。
但越发是这样的写作手法,阅读它的时候就越要去发挥自己的思维联动,因为作者给的信息太少。这是海明威特有的极简主义的风格。
举个例子,
最后,她还是提出了分手。他——。
一般作家都会写,他无奈的笑了。
他满脸苦笑。
诸如此类的等等修辞手法。
而海明威就不会赋予这个笑任何情绪,直接就写,他笑了。
但我们都有过感情受挫的经验,所以,看到他笑了。我们就会联系当时的情景,我们知道感情破裂不好笑,所以就知道这个笑肯定不是正面的情绪表达。所以男主人公这时候肯定不是开心的状态。
所以老人与海这种书,几乎从头到尾都是这样极简的写作手法,不同的人读它有不同的感受。
因为里面叙事结构几乎没有高潮,就是很平静的给你娓娓道来,书中老人几乎也没表达情绪,就是不断自言自语,不断胡思乱想。
各种情绪都要你结合自身的经验去体会。
例如老人捕获了大鱼,并且与大鱼缠斗上了,时间瞬间过去了十几个小时,老人一直重复。
“一定要记得吃沙丁鱼。”
“不管你多么不想吃,天亮后一定要把沙丁鱼吃掉。”
“必须在沙丁鱼腐化之前把它吃掉。”
因为老人抓了一条大鱼,抓住了大机会,
但是对手太过于强大,又僵持了十几个小时。
作者并没有写出来,当时老人的体力状况与心情,只是借老人的口不断说出要吃沙丁鱼这种话。
你也许会想,这样想不是很正常吗,不吃就会饿,就没体力抓鱼了,有必要强调三四遍吗。
因为你是抱着一种想看很精彩的故事的心态来看这个书的。
这样写,并不精彩,在你眼里又臭又长。
但如果你在生活中,有过面临着巨大机会,但自知能力有限,紧张兮兮的心里状态。
你就能充分体会老人当时的心态。
例如穷困潦倒,出去面试,老板审视着你,你却在心里不断念叨一定要注意自己的谈吐,不要说错话。
例如面对很喜欢,但是自己觉得配不上的女孩子,在跟她说话的时候,你却在心里不断的想自己形象如何。
例如面对客户,你本应向她推销,但心里却一直嘀嘀咕咕怎么样才能表现得体……
你要是有任何这种经验,在看这段话就绝对不会觉得他又臭又长,而会觉得能完全理解老人当时的心态。
《老人与海》写于二战结束不久,世界一片狼藉,劳动人民生活日子艰苦,大家看到这种关怀人类存在的意义,描述与命运做斗争的故事,自然喜欢,奉为经典,一点也不奇怪。
但是现如今我们生活太富足了,我认为题主人生没什么挫折,过的非常幸福。其实这并不是什么坏事呀。读书这个事情本来随性,大可找一点自己爱看的书去读。
因为《老人与海》是不适合你看的,起码,现在暂时不适合。
当你去做一些难事,
例如,穷困潦倒出去创业。
例如,一穷二白去追求自己喜欢的事情。
例如,身体条件极差但拼命锻炼想改变自己。
例如,碰到极度喜欢的女孩子然后拼命想改变自己的形象、气质、经济状况等等。
你再来看这个书,想法一定会截然不同。
我不想说我的人生过的有多艰苦,但我把这个书看完以后马上就泪目了,我看书从来没哭过,一本是这个,另一本是余华的《活着》,《活着》也被有些人称之为中国的老人与海。
老人80多天没有抓到鱼,大家要么嘲笑他,要么同情他,没人理他,只有小孩与他为伍,酒吧老板救济他才能勉强吃顿饱饭,每天只能看看棒球新闻。
这该有多失落啊,但是老人一点也没有沮丧。他出海,去了远海,他抓到一条大鱼,他是英雄,鱼也是英雄,搏斗几天几夜,惺惺相惜,鱼折磨老人,老人生吃恶心的鱼肉来充饥,睡不上觉,手上脸上血肉模糊,老人不恨鱼,敬佩鱼。
如果把钓索切断,与鱼断开牵连,马上就能解脱。但那意味着失败!老人脑子里从没放弃过去斗争的念头。他所想的只是,我要吃生鱼肉,我要保存体力,鱼呀,你快死掉吧,我要为你念经。
他胜利了,但是鲨鱼又来了,老人杀了一条又一条,枪没了,刀没了,船桨船舵都没了。
最后老人回到岸边,只带回了一条鱼的白骨。
但是他失败了吗?没有。
什么叫失败?也许可以说,人去做一件事情,没有达到预期得目的,这就是失败。
但是,那些与命运斗争的人,那些做接近自己限度的斗争的人,却天生地接近这种失败。老人到海上去,不能期望天天有鱼来咬他的钩,于是他常常失败。一个常常在进行着接近自己限度的斗争的人总是会常常失败的,一个想探索自然奥秘的人也常常会失败,一个想改革社会的人更是会常常失败。只有那些安于自己限度之内的生活的人才总是“胜利”,这种“胜利者”之所以常胜不败,只是因为他的对手是早已降伏的,或者说,他根本没有投入斗争。 ——王小波
老人只带着一副鱼骨,疲惫不堪的回到了自己的破茅屋中,他起床后并没有懊悔,也没悲伤,他只对小孩说,要准备好刀枪、装备。风雨一停我们再去出海。颇有一副将生死置之度外,向命运宣战,向梦想扬帆的热血与悲壮。
读到这里,我已肃然起敬,泪流满面。

只有这么多了
海明威一生当中写过很多部作品,他的《老人与海》是一部严格的中篇小说。1953年,海明威凭借《老人与海》获得普利策奖,1954年获诺贝尔文学奖。
海明威的一生充满传奇,他的身影、脚印一点也不比他的作品逊色。他当过记者,打过仗,打过拳击,做过间谍。他是一个非常爱冒险的人,喜欢旅行,喜欢狩猎——经常去非洲狩猎,喜欢去大海里钓鱼,也喜欢女人。
他结过四次婚,另有一个女情人死在他在哈瓦那庄园的游泳池里。也就是说,至少有五个公开的女人很深刻地陪伴过他,至于其他秘密的女人就不知道了,但一定不会少。在他的世界观里,女人也许也是猎物,可以尽兴去追,不必顾忌太多。
13岁,在我们和女同学楚河汉界隔海相望的年纪里,他已经偷吃“禁果”;17岁和一个30多岁的有夫之妇幽会频频;他的第一位妻子比他大8岁;他的第二任妻子为把他留在身边,以死相胁,却依然留不住他;他还把妻子女友发展为情人,过起“三人家庭”等等这些,都非常人所为,就像他身体里藏着200多片弹片一样让人惊叹。
这就是海明威,一个非常有个性,生活非常丰富,经历也非常传奇的人,一个特立独行的人。他死的方式也很特别——自杀,用他经常去非洲狩猎的猎枪,吞着枪管,把自己崩掉,时年62岁。
海明威一向以文坛硬汉著称,他是美利坚民族的精神丰碑。海明威的作品标志着他独特创作风格的形成,在美国文学史乃至世界文学史上都占有重要地位。

10、他确信,只要他很想击败谁,就能击败谁

40、他想,可是我一定要想。因为我剩下的只有想想了。
41、他觉得他也许已经死了。他把两只手并拢,摸摸手掌心。它们是不死的,他只要把手张开合拢,就可以感受到生命的痛楚。他把背脊靠在船尾,他知道自己没有死。他的肩膀告诉了他。
42、现在不是想你什么东西没带来的时候。想一想用你现有的东西可以做的事儿吧。
43、上了年纪的人特别怕孤单,他想,可打鱼的总有一个人独处的时候。
44、“谢谢你了,”老人说。他心地单纯,不去捉摸自己什么时候达到这样谦卑的地步。可是他知道这时正达到了这地步,知道这并不丢脸,所以也无损于真正的自尊心。
45、你真心真意地爱它,敬重它,那么你杀死它,就不能算是罪过吧。还是,属于更大的罪过?
46、但是,就因为我不是疯子,所以我不在乎。有钱的人在船上有收音机对他们讲话,报道棒球赛的消息啊
47、风总算是我们的朋友,他想。然后他又加上一句:不过也只是有时候。还有大海,那儿有我们的朋友,也有我们的敌人。床呢,他又想。床是我的朋友。正是床啊,他想。床将是样了不起的东西。吃了败仗,上床是很舒服的。
48、如果台风将至,要是你在海上,那么几天前你就可以看到征兆了。岸上的人看不到是因为他们不懂得如何观察。
49、他已经记不得自己从什么时候开始独自一人时自言自语
50、“我像你这个年纪的时候,已经是个水手了,跟着一条横帆船到了非洲。那时候经常能看见傍晚在海滩上休息的狮子呢。”

“可以捉到一千磅的大鱼”
当他的大鱼被鲨鱼吃得仅剩下一副骨骼时,他自问:“可是,是什么把你打败的呢?”“什么也不是……是我走得太远啦。”老人勇敢地承认了自己的失败,却又绝对相信自我的力量。相信他纵然是失败依然勇敢无比,相信在精神上并没有败给鲨鱼,因为被消灭的是鲨鱼,而不是自己,正是基于对待失败的勇敢、毫不气馁的精神,桑提亚哥体会到:“一旦给打败,事情也就容易办了”。
“现在只要把船尽可能好好地、灵巧地开往自己的港口去。”
“上面是一面千窗百孔的帆,上面先后补上了一些面粉袋,如一面标志着被打败的旗帜,”
“这算什么,男子汉就得这样。”
“去他妈的什么运气,我要运气跟我走。”
。“海洋是仁慈的,十分美丽的,”最终给予了老人一条“比小船还长两英尺”的大马林鱼。
“什么是一个人能够办得到的”,“这一个总要去杀死那一个”,
“他扛着桅杆坐在那儿”,还有他睡觉的姿势,“两条胳膊直直地伸在外面,两只手心朝上,就这样瞅着了。”
人面对的两难结局,有人说他没打到鱼虽然是一副骨架却卖不了钱;有人说他打到鱼了虽然是一副骨架......

The Old Man and the Sea is the most classic and concernful novel of Hemmingway's. Its compendious expression and exciting fighting narrative attracts numerous readers. The author repeatedly emphasized his customary key thoughts in the story: despairing courage, struggling on both physically and psychologically, and the hero's brave, glory and noble character.
One of the pivotal sentences, "a man can be destroyed but not defeated" draws our attention. This sentence is gorgeous in surface but a little doubtful in a certain angle. In the end of the story the old man told to the boy that he was a loser who beaten by the sharks. With his bloody hands and the skeleton of the fish, it was really difficult to judge that he was defeated or not. However, he was undoubtedly destroyed in the fighting at the hopeless sea. Therefore, the difference between "destroy" and "defeated" was just something untraceable. We are not expected to tell one word form another, but to feel the antinomy and contact of them.
This sentence from the old man was also a reflection of the author himself. Sometimes we may treat a novel as some individual and emotional words. The old man and the sea were the symbols of the author and his life and destiny. As we know, Hemingway suffered a lot from his broken life during two ruthless world wars. In his late years, he was a successful litterateur but also a disable old man. He ended up his life with suicide. It's too arbitrary to say he was defeated from his fate, and also too shallow to use the word "destroy" in his experiences.
In my opinion, the most splendid thing in Hemmingway and his the Old Man and the Sea is not the VICTORY OF DEFEAT, but the relationship between the two words "defeat" and "destroy" as well as the novel and the author.

I have read the American well-known Hemingway’s book ‘’ the old man and the sea’’, which came out in 1976. This is a true story about an old fisherman battling with a giant marlin in the sea.
The old fisherman, who names Santiago, have not caught any fish for 84 days , other fishermen looks down him as a loser, but he never gives up. Finally 85th days, he fishes a big marlin fish which is bigger than his skiff and over fifteen hundred pounds. The fish begins to tow him farther and farther out to the sea, but he still holds onto the line, even though a hand is cramping, he don’t give up it. After two days and two nights’ crucifixion, at the end he kills the fish, and attaches the marlin to the outside of the skiff with rope, it’s blood leaves a trail in the water and attracts sharks in return journey, he comes to strike back against and uses to all tools which are harpoon, knife, and quant . When Santiago returns to harbor is left over with the fish head fishtail and one backbone. Although the flesh of fish has been got rid of all quilt barking, what also has no way to devastate his brave will. When he lay down on the bed at home, he makes a usual dream of lions at play on the beaches of Africa.
This story happened in 1940th near a Gulf Stream in Cuba. The main character Santiago is an old man, who fishes alone in a skiff in the Gulf Stream and lives a small village. He is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. The second character Manolin is a young boy whom Santiago teaches to fish. The litter boy is his loyal friend. Language is great simplicity and power. The theme of courage in the face of defeat, of personal triumph won from loss. It is a song of praise of heroism.
The Author, Ernest Miller Hemingway is a famous writer in the literary world. ‘’The old man and the sea’’ was written in 1952, and it is one of Hemingway’s most enduring works .It won the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature. The author wants to told readers ,you will be supposed to like this old person same mind lofty aspiration, and will even better pursue even better, the bigger goal, don’t easy give up your goal in your life.
The novel shows a view about struggle of life, even in the face of nature can’t be conquered, but still can be moral victory. Perhaps the result of a failure, but I n the struggle of process, the reader can see how a person become an indomitable spirit of man. I like the main character Santiago and the classic saying ‘’But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated’’, because this is Santiago’s faith of life, and the human will not fail also, the enterprise spirit of a carols. It is encouraging me to face up to life with smiles no matter what happens. It's a simple story, but offers the reader much to think about without lapsing into the didactic. I am strongly recommend that book.

Once again I return to the work of Ernest Hemingway after an almost 50 year hiatus. The Old Man and the Sea is a magnificent story. At one level it is the tale of a man and a fish, at another, a story of man versus nature, at yet another, the story of the culture of manhood, courage, bravery in the face of existence, and at yet another a history of what life was like when individuals were more the central actors on the human stage and not groups or organizations.
At the most basic level the very elderly fisherman, Santiago, goes out in his small fishing boat after 84 days without hooking a decent fish. He goes far out, and hooks a gigantic 18 foot long sword fish. The battle then begins, and the fish drags the small boat and Santiago far out to sea. For two days they battle, and Santiago wins that battle, but then loses the great fish on the way home to the scavenger sharks who find him easy prey.
Hemingway celebrates the courage and raw guts of this old man, even recounting a time in Casablanca when he had spent an entire day in an arm wrestling match with a much larger man in a seaside tavern. Hemingway celebrates a concept of humans as beings who go it alone, fierce, brave, courageous without even thinking about it, oozing strength from the nature of the best of the species.
The story is told with incredible economy of words and description, yet nothing is sacrificed which drives home the power and inner strength of this man, who just takes it as what he does, what it is to be a serious fisherman.
Hemingway�s world is not my world. I am no Santiago, no macho man. And the culture of today has little place left for the radical individual whom Hemingway celebrates and Santiago portrays. Yet the power of Hemingway�s telling is such that I couldn�t help but be on Santiago�s side, to admire him, to ache with his loss in the end to forces greater than he.
There is a side tale as well. This great individual, the man who stands alone, is not alone completely by choice. He has developed a friendship, a working relationship, a love with a young boy who began fishing with him when the boy was only five. Now the boy has moved on to another boat, a more successful one, at his parents� behest, but he pines to work with Santiago, and when the battle with the great fish has been engaged, Santiago pleads over and over and over: �I wish the boy were here.�
Like many readers who might come upon this novel today, I live a life of citified ease and comfort. A life far removed from harsh confrontations with nature. But Hemingway forces me to remember and acknowledge the individual, the struggle for the most basic existence, the battle with nature for survival itself. But most importantly he makes one acknowledge the importance of the individual and the magnificence of courage, skill, art and endurance.

The Old Man and the Sea
Simon & Schuster
The Old Man and the Sea was an enormous success for Ernest Hemingway when it was published in 1952. At first glance, the story appears to be an extremely simple story of an old Cuban fisherman (Santiago), who catches an enormously large fish then loses it again. But, there's much more to the story than that...
The Old Man and the Sea helped to revive Hemingway's reputation as a writer of great acclaim. This slim volume also contributed enormously to Hemingway's recognition as a world-renowned writer--with the award of the Nobel Prize for literature. The popular reception of the novel comes from its part-parable, part-eulogy style--recollecting a by-gone age in this spiritual quest for discovery. Touching and powerful in turns, the story is told in Hemingway's simple, brittle style. The book reaches out to a very human need--for stability and certainty.
Overview: The Old Man and the Sea
Santiago is an old man, and many are starting to think that he can no longer fish. He has gone for many months without landing any kind of fish to speak of; and his apprentice, a young man named Manolin, has gone to work for a more prosperous boat. The fisherman sets out into the open sea and goes a little further out than he normally would in his desperation to catch a fish. At noon, a big Marlin takes hold of one of the lines, but the fish is far too big for him to handle.
Hemingway pays great attention to the skill and dexterity that Santiago uses in coping with the fish. Santiago lets the fish have enough line, so that it won't break his pole; but he and his boat are dragged out to sea for three days. Finally, the fish--an enormous and worthy opponent--grows tired; and Santiago kills it. Even this final victory does not end the Santiago's journey; he is a still far, far out to sea. To make matters worse, Santiago drags the Marlin behind the boat (and the blood from the dead fish attracts sharks).
Santiago does his best to beat the sharks away, but his efforts are not enough. The sharks eat the flesh off the Marlin, and Santiago is left with only the bones. Santiago gets back to shore--weary and tired--with nothing to show for his pains but the skeletal remains of a large Marlin. Even with just the bare remains of the fish, the experience has changed him, and altered the perception others have of him. Manolin wakes him the morning after his return and suggests that they once more fish together.

I was very surprised when I finally tried to read this, and discovered that it bored the living crap out of me. I just couldn't get into it, I don't know why, maybe it was just my mood or something....? I mean, I do like Hemingway. I love the sea, and baseball. I am relatively fond of both old men and little boys (not like that, you fool).... and this is supposed to be really terrific and all, but I just.... I mean, I could've finished it of course, it's short, and it wouldn't have been like torture at all, but I just wasn't feeling it.... so I stopped.
Sometimes I think about making an "okay-so-does-this-mean-i'm-stupid-or-something?" shelf, but my ideological opposition to the idea has overridden that impulse every time.... so far.
