如果给我一部时间机器,我会告诉21岁的自己,人的幸福在于知道生活不是一份漂亮的成绩单,你的资历、简历,都不是你的生活,虽然你会碰到很多与我同龄或更老一点的人今天依然还在混淆两者。生活是艰辛的,复杂的,超出任何人的控制能力,而谦恭地了解这一点,将使你历经沧桑后能够更好的生存。
So given a Time Turner, I would tell my 21-year-old self that personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications, your CV, are not your life, though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult, and complicated, and beyond anyone’s total control, and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.
你的工作将占据你生活的大部分,唯一能真正感到满足的方法就是做你认为伟大的工作。
【译文】 孔子说:“《诗经》三百首,用一句话可以概括,即:‘思想纯洁’。”
梦想是变革的种子。没有种子,什么都不会生长;没有梦想,什么都不会改变。
历史是一个画廊,里面原作很少,复制品很多。
真正的奢华在于那些大多数人第一眼甚至注意不到的细节。
In the fight between you and the world, back the world.
I don't care about being liked. I care about being respected.
