It has been a long trip, said Milo, climbing onto the couch where the princesses sat; but we would have been here much sooner if I hadn't made so many mistakes. I'm afraid it's all my fault.
You must never feel badly about making mistakes, explained Reason quietly. As long as you take the trouble to learn from them. For you often learn more by being wrong for the right reasons than you do by being right for the wrong reasons.
（这是一次漫长的旅行。小米勒说着，爬上公主们坐的长睡椅。要是我们不做那么多错事，就会更快一点到这儿来。我想，这都是我不好。
只要你不辞辛劳去探索，你就绝不会因为犯错误而沮丧。真理公主平静地解释说。你因为想做好事而犯错误，比你因为错误的理由而侥幸成功，总是有益得多。）
But there's so much to learn, he said, with a thoughtful frown.
You may not see it now, said the Princess of Pure Reason, looking knowingly at Milo's puzzled face, but whatever we learn has a purpose and whatever we do affects everything and everyone else, even if in the tiniest way. Whenever you laugh, gladness spreads like the ripples in a pond; and whenever you're sad, no one anywhere can be really happy. And it's much the same thing with knowledge, for whenever you learn something new, the whole world becomes that much richer.
（要学的东西太多了。小米勒若有所思地皱起眉头说。
你现在也许还不明白。真理公主看看小米勒疑惑的脸，她说：我们无论学习什么都要有目的；不论做什么都要对每一件事、每一个人负责，即使是最小的事也一样。你微笑的时候欢乐就像池塘中的波纹一样散开；而你忧愁的时候，别人也不会真正快乐。学习知识也一样。每当你学会一点新的东西，整个世界就会变得富有一点。）
And remember, also, added the Princess of Sweet Rhyme, that many places you would like to see are just off the map and many things you want to know are just out of sight or a little beyond your reach. But someday you'll reach them all, for what you learn today, for no reason at all, will help you discover all the wonderful secrets of tomorrow.
（还要记住。音韵公主接着说，有很多你喜欢看到的地方地图上是没有的，很多你想知道的东西是看不见的，或者是你所不能及的。但是有一天你也许会遇到它们，因为你今天学会的东西，完全可能在明天帮助你发现更多令人惊奇的秘密。）
从这以后，小米勒觉得天空那么蓝，那么可爱，一片片白云就像一艘艘扬帆远航的小船；树梢高高地耸入天空，嫩芽和树叶绿葱葱的……他想去散步，去爬山，去看小毛虫一拱一拱地在花园里蠕动……他觉得有那么多有趣的书要读，有那么多东西要去发明，去创造。他想演奏音乐，想唱歌，还要幻想世界……他渴望着一切新的东西——它们都值得去探索，去尝试……
啊，小米勒真的变了！看来，小米勒这次艰险的旅行不仅没有浪费时间，还充满了乐趣，也很有创意。我多么希望我的翻译能让更多的小朋友像小米勒一样，走出家门去认识世界，感受自然，体验天空的高远，大地的辽阔，海洋的深邃，浏览五彩缤纷的颜色，聆听天地的奏鸣，让自己的眼界与胸怀和大自然一样广阔无垠……
