I don't know if I'm the best or not, but I always try to be better. - 每日文摘

是故置本不安者，无务丰末。

所以根基树立不牢的人，不要期望有茂盛的枝叶。

墨子

我不是在装酷，我只是做我自己。

I'm not trying to be cool, I'm just being me.

The Weeknd

我们忘记了每一个值得拥有的美好事物都必须通过每天的努力来支付。我们推迟、推迟，直到那些令人愉悦的可能性死去……通过忽视必要的具体劳动，通过节省一点日常的付出，我们实际上是在挖掘我们更高可能性的坟墓。

威廉·詹姆斯

The moment eternal—just that and nothing more.

永恒的瞬间——仅此而已，别无他物。

罗伯特·勃朗宁

我赞成不搞无谓的争论，对于花样翻新的名词口号，对于热点热门，对于咋咋呼呼，我常常抱不为所动怒，静观其变，不信其邪，言行对照，比较分析的态度。

王蒙

"I believe in the power of cinema to change the world."

除非你让潜意识变成有意识的，否则它将指导你的生活，你称之为命运。

荣格

每位艺术家都将画笔浸入自己的灵魂，将自己的本性绘入画作。

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

艾米丽·卡特

生命如同太阳，有日出就有晚霞，乐观面对可以体验人生的豁达。

I have a vivid memory of what happened， and it was not what I expected. I expected to be applauded for my cleverness and arithmetic skills. "Jeff， you're so smart. You had to have made some tricky estimates， figure out the number of minutes in a year and do some division." That's not what happened. Instead， my grandmother burst into tears. I sat in the backseat and did not know what to do. While my grandmother sat crying， my grandfather， who had been driving in silence， pulled over onto the shoulder of the highway. He got out of the car and came around and opened my door and waited for me to follow. Was I in trouble？ My grandfather was a highly intelligent， quiet man. He had never said a harsh word to me， and maybe this was to be the first time？ Or maybe he would ask that I get back in the car and apologize to my grandmother. I had no experience in this realm with my grandparents and no way to gauge what the consequences might be. We stopped beside the trailer. My grandfather looked at me， and after a bit of silence， he gently and calmly said， "Jeff， one day you'll understand that it's harder to be kind than clever."

我清晰地记得接下来发生了什么，而那是我意料之外的。我本期待着小聪明和算术技巧能赢得掌声，但那并没有发生。相反，我的祖母哭泣起来。我的祖父之前一直在默默开车，把车停在了路边，走下车来，打开了我的车门，等着我跟他下车。我惹麻烦了吗？我的祖父是一个智慧而安静的人。他从来没有对我说过严厉的话，难道这会是第一次？还是他会让我回到车上跟祖母道歉？我以前从未遇到过这种状况，因而也无从知晓会有什么后果发生。我们在房车旁停下来。祖父注视着我，沉默片刻，然后轻轻地、平静地说："杰夫，有一天你会明白，善良比聪明更难。"
