I tend to think that the longer the pause, the more emphatic the statement.
"True loyalty is not blind; it sees the flaws but chooses to stay."
In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock.
Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do something.
生命太短暂,不能浪费时间恨任何人。
"To understand the present, we must first understand the past."
