There are many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.
一年中的夜晚与白天数量相同、持续时间一样长。即使快乐的生活也有其阴暗笔触，没有“悲哀”提供平衡，“愉快”一词就会失去意义。耐心镇静地接受世事变迁，是最好的处事之道。
The essence of learning is the acquisition of meanings.
I believe in the power of intention and love.
人们永远不会注意到已经做了什么；人们只能看到还有待完成的事情。
Play is the language of childhood, and books should speak that language too.
