出自汉·桓宽《盐铁论·地广》。贱，指地位低。贫，指没有钱财。地位卑贱并不妨碍一个人的智慧，家境贫寒并不妨碍一个人的品行。这句话言评价一个人的才智、德行不能根据其社会地位、经济状况来作判断。出身低贱的人，不一定没有智慧；家境贫寒的人，不一定没有品行。

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.

The power of art lies in its ability to make the invisible visible.
