No matter how tough you are, golf will always find a way to humble you.

It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.

——《致郑藻如书》（1890年）

君主所凭借着驱使臣下的，只有尚贤一种方法；臣下用来侍奉君主的，也只有仁义一条途径。 

That which is, is peace. All that we need do is to keep quiet.

生活中唯一的残疾是坏态度。
