人们总觉得最有意思的话题就是与自己相关的话题。所以，要善于分析他人的问题所在，并尝试提出办法来帮助他人。几乎所有的人，无论他声名多么显赫、地位多么高贵，都愿意接受新的想法，当然，前提是这些想法必须经过深思熟虑。

I do not like proper novels. In proper novels people say things like, ‘I am veined with iron, with silver and with streaks of common mud. I cannot contract into the firm fist which those clench who do not depend on stimulus.’ What does this mean? I do not know. Nor does Father. Nor do the people who write these books.
