The individual's biography is shaped by the historical and social context in which it is embedded.

"Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans."

When you meet with opposition, even if it should be from your husband or your children, endeavor to overcome it by argument and not by authority, for a victory dependent upon authority is unreal and illusory.

People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.　　

我非常钦佩那些无所畏惧、敢于做自己的女性。
