3. Love Is Blind: 愛(ài)是盲目的

This phrase has more than one meaning: we overlook flaws in those we love (that's good), but love can blind us to serious issues (that's bad).

這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的意思是：我們會(huì)忽略我們愛(ài)的人身上的缺點(diǎn)（這點(diǎn)不錯(cuò)）；愛(ài)會(huì)讓我們忽視一些嚴(yán)重的問(wèn)題（這就不好了）。

How Shakespeare used it:

In The Merchant of Venice, Jessica is shy about her beloved Lorenzo seeing her disguised as a boy, but recognizes that it won't affect his love for her, saying, "But love is blind and lovers cannot see / The pretty follies that themselves commit ..." (Act 2, Scene 6)

莎士比亞原文：在《威尼斯商人》中，杰西卡不好意思讓深愛(ài)的羅倫佐看到她偽裝成一個(gè)男孩，不過(guò)也意識(shí)到這并不妨礙他愛(ài)她，她說(shuō)，“可愛(ài)情是盲目的，愛(ài)侶們看不到他們自己犯下的那些美麗又愚蠢的錯(cuò)誤…”（第2幕，第6場(chǎng)）

現(xiàn)代例句：

"Jonathan Rhys Meyers thinks love is blind. The actor ... thinks it is easy to fall for someone without knowing much about them, just like his alter-ego does...." — ShowbizSpy.com, Feb. 7, 2010
