The act of writing is an act of optimism. You would not take the trouble to do it if you felt it didn't matter.

Hard work and perseverance will always pay off.

I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life. To put to rout all that was not life. And not, when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived.

成功不是给予的，而是赢得的。

I come from a very large, loving family.
