The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success.
别让任何人定义你的价值。
【译文】 颜渊感叹地说：“老师的学问越仰望越觉得高耸，越钻研越觉得深厚；看着就在前面，忽然却在后面。老师步步引导，用知识丰富我，用礼法约束我，想不学都不成。
The human mind is a machine for self-deception; we see what we want to see.
