Old paint on canvas, as it ages, sometimes becomes transparent. When that happens it is possible, in some pictures, to see the original lines: a tree will show through a woman's dress, a child makes way for a dog, a large boat is no longer on an open sea. That is called pentimento because the painter 'repented,' changed his mind. Perhaps it would be as well to say that the old conception, replaced by a later choice, is a way of seeing and then seeing again.

现在，我想趁这个给机会，给大家一些人生经验。漫漫人生路啊，你会发现并不总是公平的，你也会发现本不属于你的不可承受之重，却重重地压在你的身上，而且这些并非合理。但是，你必须低下头，并且抗争！抗争！抗争！永远永远不要放弃，一切终将变好。看看我是怎么被对待的，尤其是媒体对我的攻击。历史上没有一个政治家，我非常肯定地说，比我受到过更糟，更不公平的待遇。但是，你不能被他们打败，在你的人生的追梦路上，你不能被批评者和否定者绊住脚步。我想这就是为什么我赢了，谢谢，我想这就是为什么我们胜利了。逆境让你变得更加强大，不要屈服，不要退缩，不要停止做你认为正确的事情，一切值得做的事情。必定要经历诸多磨难，你所做的事情越正义，你受到的阻力就越大。我已经取得了巨大的成就，在很短的时间内成为了总统。

Take a simple idea, and take it seriously.

It is remarkable how much long-term advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be very intelligent.
