英语词汇“hell is paved with good intentions”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

b. (the road to) hell is paved with good intentions and variants. [Attributed to St Bernard by St Francis de Sales (1604 (letter of 21 Nov.), in Corresp.: Lettres d'Amitié Spirituelle (1980) 186, in the form l'enfer est plein de bonnes volontés ou désirs, lit. ‘hell is full of good intentions and wishes’), but apparently not found in the works of St Bernard. Early English versions of the proverb similarly do not refer to hell or the road to hell being paved, but simply being filled with good intentions. Later versions mentioning paving (now the usual forms) are perhaps influenced by Ecclesiasticus 20:10: ‘The way of sinners is made plain with stones, but at the end thereof is the pit of hell’ (King James Bible; compare via peccantium conplanata lapidibus et in fine illorum inferi et tenebrae et poena (Vulgate, Ecclesiasticus 20:11)). Versions of this proverb are found in several European languages.]
