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。
每个结束都只是伪装的新开始。
一个人最危险的敌人是他自己的口舌。
The duration of passion is proportionate with the original resistance of the woman.
真正的旅程不在于发现新的风景，而在于用新的眼光去看。
没有刻苦钻研的精神，就不能明辨事情的道理；没有专心致志的工作，就不会取得显赫的成绩。
