小说是一种永远处于危机中、濒临消失边缘的艺术形式,而这正是它保持生命力的原因。
The novel is an art form that is always in crisis, always on the verge of disappearing, and that's what keeps it alive.
〈在广东第一女子师范学校校庆纪念会的演说〉,1924年4月4日
Success comes from focusing on solutions, not dwelling on problems.
In teaching history, there should be extensive discussion of personalities who benefited mankind through independence of character and judgement.
Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire.
