出自先秦《荀子·非十二子》。尊重贤能的人，是“仁”的表现，鄙视道德不好的人，也是“仁”的表现。说明“仁”正反两个方面的标准。

Knowledge is power, but learning is a superpower.

译文：与其让乡邻夸赞自己，不如让他们对自己没有怨言；与其为子孙谋求财富和产业，不如教会他们受用一生的本事。赏析：我们要做到被人人称赞很难，但可以做到不被人抱怨。对方抱怨，肯定是内心有不平事。当我们动之以情，晓之以理，做到公平公正，一视同仁，乡邻的怨愤才会减少。授人以鱼，不如授人以渔。我们竭尽全力为子孙后代积攒万贯家财，如果他们不会理财，家业迟早都会败光。相反，我们教会他们赚钱的本事，教会他们做人的准则，他们自然可以立于不败之地。

成功的秘诀在于开始行动。

尽人事，听天命，心态平和最重要。  

The number one organ of ridicule, nowadays, is the newspaper. If you open the newspaper any day of the week, it's full of people who've messed up their lives. They've slept with the wrong person, taken the wrong substance, passed the wrong piece of legislation -- whatever it is, and then are fit for ridicule. In other words, they have failed. And they are described as "losers." Now, is there any alternative to this? I think the Western tradition shows us one glorious alternative, which is tragedy.
