"I can resist everything except temptation."

Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make it the objet of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained. Follow some other object, and very possibly we may find that we have cought happiness without dreaming of it.

如果你把所有的失误都关在门外，真理也将被关在门外了。

The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all. This puts one in accord with nature in her manner of operation.

人需要经历痛苦。经历痛苦后，人就会变得强大。
