欧内斯特·海明威/Ernest Hemingway
In a calm sea every man is a pilot.
But all sunshine without shade, all pleasure without pain, is not life at all. Take the lot of the happiest-it is a tangled yam.
Bereavements and blessings, one following another, make us sad and blessed by turns. Even death itself makes life more loving.Men come closest to their ture selves in the sober moments of life, under the shadows of sorrow and loss.
In the affairs of life or of business, it is not intellect that tells so much as character, not brains so much as heart, not genius so much as self-control, patience, and discipline, regulated by judgment.
I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within beginning to live more simply without. In an age of extravagance and waste, I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.
To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance. There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man.The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.
风平浪静的海面上，人人都可以成为舵手。
然而，没有阴影只有阳光，没有痛苦只有快乐，那根本不是人生。即便对于最幸福的人来说，生活也只是一团纠缠的纱线。
亲人的死亡和上天的赐福交替而来，让我们既悲伤又快乐。即便死亡本身也会让人生显得更加可爱，在悲伤及失去的阴影下，人生清醒的时刻，人们才最接近他们真实的自我。
在生活或事业中，智力所发挥的作用不及品格，头脑不及心境，天才不及由判断力所规范的自制、耐心和纪律。
我一直相信，内心生活越严谨的人，他的外在生活越俭朴。在这个奢侈浪费的时代，我希望能让人们知道，人类真正的需求是多么少。
悔恨自己的过失，并做到不再犯错，才是真正的悔过。超越他人算不上什么高尚，真正的高尚在于超越自我。
