Don't let the things you own end up oweing you.

别到头来受制于你所拥有的。

  两个需要注意的地方。第一,动词词组end up,以……结束,后面需要加动词的现在分词形式。第二,动词owe在这里是作及物动词用,原意是“欠,使有支付义务”(to be indebted),这里使用的是原意的引申意:使迫使,使束缚(to oblige, to constrain)。

  原句“let the things you own end up oweing you”是电影《搏击俱乐部》(Fight Club)的经典台词,也是一句警句。网上对这句话的解读是:“我们每天追求物质上的享受,慢慢就会真的发现自己已经被已有的成就套牢,没办法脱身。”
