The main task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control.

译文：能够认清时代潮流形势就是出色的人物，能够通晓随机应变之术的人才是英雄豪杰。赏析：社会在发展，科技在更新，人的思想也要与时俱进。我们不能用陈旧的思想去指导我们的行为，待人处事一定要圆滑，不可太死板僵化，要学会察言观色，随机应变。

未来是为每个人创造一个更美好的世界。

The moment eternal—just that and nothing more.

Better to live one year as a tiger, than a hundred as a sheep.

We are all waiting for something to save us from ourselves.
