A sound mind in a sound body， is a short， but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two， has little more to wish for； and he that wants either of them， will be little the better for anything else. Men’s happiness or misery is most part of their own making. He， whose mind directs not wisely， will never take the right way； and he， whose body is crazy and feeble， will never be able to advance in it.
健康的精神寓于健康的身体, 这话虽短，但却可完全阐释人生在世幸福之真谛。这二者兼备的人，夫复何求；欠缺其中任意一个的人, 与其他任何事上都难达完美（离更好总会差那么一点点）。人的幸福或痛苦, 大部分是源于自身造就。那些没有理智指引的人永远走不到正确的道路上；而那些身体孱弱的人永远无力抬升内在（的精神或灵魂）。
If you are under the impression you have already perfected yourself， you will never rise to the heights you are no doubt capable of.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
我认为生活中最重要的事情是对自己诚实。
你如何知道选择哪条正确的道路才能得到你渴望的结果？诚实的答案是：你不会知道，而接受这一点，会极大地减轻你人生经历中的焦虑。
希望不是一种感觉，而是一种可行的、戏剧性的行动。
实践可以包含认识，但认识不能代替实践。
