We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and—in spite of True Romance magazines—we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way.
我们生来孤独，活着孤独，死去孤独。尽管有那些浪漫杂志的渲染，终有一天我们会回顾一生，发现尽管有人相伴，我们始终孤独。
The chief beauty about time is that you cannot waste it in advance. The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoiled, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your life. You can turn over a new leaf every hour if you choose.
只要完全消除对尘世的眷恋之情，那么心灵之镜就会明亮澄彻，所以从外部关注自己的影像，不如从内部进行自我省察，驱除庸俗的念头；只要看破红尘，打消对如梦幻泡影一样的世事的执著之念，那么自身天性就会像明珠一样晶莹剔透，熠熠生辉，要做世间少有的通达超脱之人，最关键的还是要保护好自家内心的那一份纯真。
