"Literature is the mirror of society, reflecting its beauty and its flaws."
The past must be respected, but not copied.
所以大国攻打小国,那是互相残害,大国的错误必然反过来使其本国受害。 
The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient.
译文:花开花落已两载,看着盛开的花,想到两年未曾回家,就不免伤心落泪。小船还系在岸边,虽然我不能东归,飘零在外的我,心却长系故园。
