以往的事过去了便不再重提，现在的事做一件有一件的功劳，未来的事情省一件便省去许多麻烦。

我们都是自己的监狱，自己的狱卒。

"It's not generally realized that all writers, even the greatest, are also readers first and last."

唯一真正属于你的是你的热情。

Sometimes, the hardest thing in life is to know which bridge to cross and which to burn.

译文：不务正业的人如果能迷途知返，仍然是一个正人君子；高贵的人误入歧途，便会被庸人嘲笑。赏析：过去的错误已无可挽回，但未来的路还可以追寻。人犯错误不可怕，就怕一错再错，不知悔改。

We are all of us, every day, engaged in the act of creating ourselves.

To write is to explore the unknown territories of the mind.
