Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained.
不要用战术的勤奋掩盖战略的懒惰。
我们想要的不是物质,而是背后的情感反馈,这赋予奢侈品一个崭新的意义。下次你看到那些开着法拉利跑车的人,你不要想“这个人很贪婪”,而是“这是一个无比脆弱、急需爱的人”,也就是说,同情他们,不要鄙视他们。
It's the rewards we want. It's a new way of looking at luxury goods. The next time you see somebody driving a Ferrari, don't think, "This is somebody who's greedy." Think, "This is somebody who is incredibly vulnerable and in need of love." Feel sympathy, rather than contempt.
译文:修性养心最好的方式就是少些欲望,培养廉洁的美德最好的方式就是不要心存贪念。赏析:人的欲望太多,贪念过盛,一旦无法满足,就会伤身费神。守身必谨严,养心须淡泊。为了追逐名利,有的人忘乎所以,最终走上违法犯罪的道路。
书籍是反映我们潜力的镜子。
