Unless suffering is the direct and immediate object of life, our existence must entirely fail of its aim.

고통이 삶의 직접적이고 즉각적인 목적이 아니라면, 우리의 존재는 그 목적을 완전히 달성하지 못할 것이다.

It is absurd to look upon the enormous amount of pain that abounds everywhere in the world, and originates in needs and necessities inseparable from life itself, as serving no purpose at all and the result of mere chance.

세상 곳곳에 만연하고 삶 자체와 불가분하게 연결된 필요와 필수에서 비롯된 엄청난 고통을 아무런 목적도 없고 단지 우연의 결과라고 여기는 것은 어리석은 일입니다.

Each separate misfortune, as it comes, seems, no doubt, to be something exceptional; but misfortune in general is the rule.

각각의 불행은 일어날 때마다 예외적인 일처럼 보이지만, 불행은 일반적으로 일어나는 일입니다.

I know of no greater absurdity than that propounded by most systems of philosophy in declaring evil to be negative in its character.

나는 악의 본질이 부정적이라고 선언하는 대부분의 철학 체계보다 더 큰 어리석음을 알지 못한다.

Evil is just what is positive; it makes its own existence felt.

악은 바로 긍정적인 것입니다. 악은 자신의 존재를 분명히 드러냅니다.

Leibnitz is particularly concerned to defend this absurdity; and he seeks to strengthen his position by using a palpable and paltry sophism.

라이프니츠는 특히 이 부조리를 옹호하는 데 관심을 기울이며 명백하고 보잘것없는 궤변을 사용하여 자신의 입장을 강화하려고 합니다.

It is the good which is negative; in other words, happiness and satisfaction always imply some desire fulfilled, some state of pain brought to an end.

선은 부정적인 것입니다. 다시 말해, 행복과 만족은 항상 어떤 욕망의 충족, 어떤 고통의 상태의 종식을 의미합니다.

This explains the fact that we generally find pleasure to be not nearly so pleasant as we expected, and pain very much more painful.

이것은 우리가 일반적으로 쾌락이 예상했던 것만큼 즐겁지 않고 고통은 훨씬 더 고통스럽다는 사실을 설명해 줍니다.
