We have a responsibility, every one of us. We may think we live a long way from the oceans, but we don't. What we actually do here, has a direct effect on the oceans—and what the oceans do then reflects back on us.

语出西汉·桓宽《盐铁论·疾贪》。表：古代测量日影以计时的标杆。要想让影子正，就要先将标杆树直；要想让下面的人清廉，就要先自己做到清廉。说明上位是下位的表率。

"Writing is a way to make sense of our relationships."

译文：敬重他人，就是尊重自己；依靠自己，胜过依赖他人。赏析：爱人者，人恒爱之，敬人者，人恒敬之。要想得到别人的尊重，我们首先学会尊重别人。靠人不如靠己，求人不如求己。与其把希望寄托于他人，不如自己脚踏实地，努力拼搏。
