与我们内心的东西相比,我们身后和面前的东西都是微不足道的。
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
"To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all."
The difference between stupid and intelligent people—and this is true whether or not they are well-educated—is that intelligent people can handle subtlety.
【释义】金属之所以被折断,是因为其太过刚硬了,流水之所以能保全,是因为其柔和;高山之所以被挖掘,是因为其高大,而山谷之所以能安全无事,是因为其低下。【延伸】刚强耿直的人,容易受挫折、遭打击;柔和无争的人,则能够保全自己。刚强的克星,是温柔。
