原文“But a man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”出处海明威：《老人与中。
理《老人与海》的内容很简单，海明威了简单的词汇，简单的句型结构和简单的句间逻辑关系，显示出一种朴素的尊严。
“一个人可以被消灭，可你就是打不败他”。
初读起来十分简单明了，但是细究下去，会发现简单的故事具有难以穷尽的内涵，具有极其独特的表现手法。
自然法则是人类力量不可抗拒的，人类可以利用自然、改造自然，但人类不能征服自然。
这句话的意思是“一个人，生来不是为失败而生，尽管他有可能被别人打倒，但仅仅是肉体上的，而精神是永存的。
有了顽强的信念作为支撑,即使前面有再大的阻碍,即使没有命运的垂青,他依旧是胜利的。

I wish I was the fish, he thought, with everything he has against only my will and my intelligence. 我想知道为什么他跳了，老人想。
