It's all very well for a woman to have been beautiful, and to strive to keep so, but in reality there's only ruin left, and shame and disgust."
On a beau avoir été belle, s’entêter à l’être encore, rien ne reste que des ruines, que la honte et le dégoût. »

We must strive without ceasing to clarify as many ideas as we can, that we may thus arouse in our soul more and more that now are obscure.
Il faut tâcher d'avoir le plus grand nombre possible d'idées aussi claires que possible afin d'éveiller en son âme un plus grand nombre d'idées qui soient encore obscures.

The streaming plain, seamed and seared with long parallel canals and scooped into water-holes, is an immensity, and these castaways who strive to exhume themselves from it are legion.
La plaine, qui ruisselle, striée de longs canaux parallèles, creusée de trous d’eau, est immense, et ces naufragés qui cherchent à se déterrer d’elle sont une multitude…

And thus he remained the martyr of freedom: freedom which he still desired in spite of everything; freedom, which, strive as he might, never came, never existed.
Et il restait le martyr de la liberté, et il la voulait quand même, elle qui n’était jamais.

"All this goes beyond me, Judith. I strive to do right, here, as the surest means of keeping all right, hereafter.
– Tout cela est au-dessus de moi, Judith ; je tâche de faire le bien en cette vie, comme étant le plus sûr moyen de me trouver bien dans l’autre.

'Tis of little use Judith, for any to strive to get out of their elements, since it's natur' to stay in 'em, and natur' will have its way.
Il n’est prudent à personne, Judith, de vouloir sortir de son élément, puisque la nature veut qu’on y reste ; et la nature doit avoir son cours.

Did I not make you see by what I owned just now, the three children to whom I am bound, to whom I shall never fail, on whom I strive to shed a healing dew and the light of my own soul without withdrawing or adulterating a single particle?
Ma confession ne vous a-t-elle donc pas assez montré les "trois" enfants auxquels je ne dois jamais faillir, sur lesquels je dois faire pleuvoir une rosée réparatrice, et faire rayonner mon âme sans en laisser adultérer la moindre parcelle!

In addition to helping get sympathetic individuals elected or appointed to key positions, groups in the lobby strive to shape the political calculations of officials who might be tempted to chart a more independent course.
En plus de travailler à faire élire ou nommer à des postes clés des personnes acquises à sa cause, le lobby s'efforce de peser sur les choix politiques de ceux qui seraient peut-être tentés de s'engager dans une voie plus indépendante.

Her discolored lips drew up from her famished teeth trying to form a smile,-- the forced smile with which we strive to hide either the irony of vengeance, the expectation of pleasure, the intoxication of our souls, or the fury of disappointment.
Ses lèvres décolorées se tendirent alors sur ses dents affamées pour essayer un de ces sourires forcés sous lesquels nous cachons également l’ironie de la vengeance, l’attente du plaisir, l’ivresse de l’âme et la rage d’une déception.
