日月欲明，浮云盖之；河水欲清，沙石秽之；人性欲平，嗜欲害之。

释义：日月想要明亮，浮云遮蔽了它们；河水想要清澈，沙石使它变污浊；人的性情想要平和，嗜好和欲望会损害了它。

卢梭

We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.

肯尼迪

生存是不够的，还需要有阳光、自由，和一点花的芬芳。

玛格丽特·阿特伍德

我宁愿30投0中，也不愿意9投0中。9投0中意味着你被自己打败了，被比赛吓得不知所措……唯一的解释就是，你已经对自己丧失信心。

I would go 0-30 before I would go 0-9. 0-9 means you beat yourself, you psyched yourself out of the game.

科比·布莱恩特

同样，如果一个人内在充足、丰富，不需要从自身之外寻求娱乐，那么，这个人就是一个最幸运的人。

叔本华

赶脚的在驴子眼前吊一个萝卜，驴为了吃上它就紧跑，结果驴跑萝卜也跑，永远也吃不上。

钱钟书

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

简单是终极的复杂。
