"It has always seemed strange to me... the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success."

The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions. A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing.

The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.

The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.

千丈长的大堤，会因为蝼蚁的小洞而溃决

We must embrace the unknown in order to discover our true potential.
