每一代人都认为自己比前一代人更聪明，比后一代人更明智。

What would you do if you weren't afraid?

译文：没有忍耐之心，是做人的大忌，总是怀着吃亏的心态，是很好的处世之道。赏析：忍一时风平浪静，退一步海阔天空。与人相处，不必事事都要争个高低，更不必小肚鸡肠。一忍可以制百辱，一静可以制百动。吃亏就是不必事事都在乎个人的得失，事事都斤斤计较，善于吃亏的人，终究会有无穷的福分。

质量从来不是偶然的；它始终是智慧努力的结果。

不要为了别人而活，要为自己而活。

The very shaping of history now outpaces the ability of men to orient themselves in accordance with cherished values. And which values? Even when they do not panic, men often sense that older ways of feeling and thinking have collapsed and that newer beginnings are ambiguous to the point of moral stasis.
