众人重利，廉士重名，贤人尚志，圣人贵精。

庄子

穷人并不懒惰；他们只是被困在一个让他们很难摆脱贫困的系统中。

The poor are not lazy; they are just caught in a system that makes it very hard for them to escape poverty.

埃丝特·迪弗洛

Success is not about how much you know, but how much you care.

成功不在于你知道多少，而在于你关心多少。

最好的程序是这样写的：计算机可以快速执行它们，人类可以清楚地理解它们。理想情况下，程序员是一位散文家，他使用传统的美学和文学形式以及数学概念来传达算法的工作原理，并说服读者结果是正确的。

The best programs are written so that computing machines can perform them quickly and so that human beings can understand them clearly. A programmer is ideally an essayist who works with traditional aesthetic and literary forms as well as mathematical concepts, to communicate the way that an algorithm works and to convince a reader that the results will be correct.

罗伯特·塔扬

The act of making art is an act of hope.

人若愿意，何不以悠悠之生，立一技之长，而贞静自守。

The true value of a human being is determined primarily by the measure and the sense in which he has attained liberation from the self.
