（单词翻译）

I will laugh at the world.

Henceforth will l shed only tears of sweat, for those of sadness or remorse1 or frustration2 are of no value in the market place whilst each smile can be exchanged for gold and each kind word, spoken from my heart, can build a castle.

Never will l allow myself to become so important, so wise, so dignified3, so powerful, that I forget how to laugh at myself and my world. In this matter I will always remain as a child, for only as a cl1ild am I given the ability to look up to others; and so long as I 1ook up to another I will never grow too long for my cot.

And so long as I can laugh never will I be poor. This, then, is one of nature\'s greatest gifts, and l will waste it no more. Only with laughter and happiness can l truly become a success. Only with laughter and happiness can I enjoy the fruits of my labor4. Were it not so, far better would it be to fail, for happiness is the wine that sharpens the taste of the meal. To enjoy success I must have happiness, and laughter will be the maiden5 who serves me.

I will be happy.

I will be successful.
