If you want to see what this nation is all about, you have to ride the rails. Look outside as you speed through, and you’ll find the true face of America.
天地虽然广阔,但变化规律是相同的;万物虽然繁多,但治理原则是一致的。
Reading furnishes the mind only with materials of knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours.
——〈在北京基督教等六教会欢迎会的演说〉,1912年9月5日
世界上充满了神奇的事物,耐心地等待我们的感官变得更加敏锐。
