"The act of writing is an act of courage, a defiance against the silence of the world."

出自汉·桓宽《盐铁论·刺义》。品德高尚的人不拒绝听取负薪之人的意见，其名声才能远播。所以见多识广的人知识广博，多听多闻的人拥有智慧，拒绝别人劝说的人心胸狭隘，一味相信自己的人必然孤立。

Success only comes through preparation.

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
