求威斯敏斯特教堂碑文英语原文
“当我年轻的时候,我梦想改变这个世界；当我成熟以后,我发现我不能够改变这个世界,我将目光缩短了些,决定只改变我的国家；当我进入暮年以后,我发现我不能够改变我们的国家,我的最后愿望仅仅是改变一下我的家庭,但是,这也不可能.当我现在躺在床上,行将就木时,我突然意识到：如果一开始我仅仅去改变我自己,然后,我可能改变我的家庭；在家人的帮助和鼓励下,我可能为国家做一些事情；然后,谁知道呢?我甚至可能改变这个世界.”
就是这一段的英语原文,请提供准确的原文而不是翻译,

Legend has it that these words are written on the tomb of a bishop, buried in the crypts of Westminster Abbey in London:
"When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the world. As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country.
"But it too, seemed immovable.
"As I grew into my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.
"And now as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realise, If I had only changed myself first, then by example I would have changed my family.
From their inspiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed the world."
"Just don't give up on trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.".
