"There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations."

译文：坏人未必天生就坏，往往是习惯成了本性(梁上君子典故)。

One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half.

释义：老实敦厚的人言辞少，浮躁虚妄的人言辞多。
