The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you are, ever after, secure in your ability to survive.

Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won, and it has been worth more than any qualification I ever earned.

译文：知识只有到实际运用的时候才会后悔自己当初读得太少了，事情如果没有亲身经历就不知道其中的艰难。赏析：年少时，我们不知道读书的意义，等到出生社会以后才明白读书的好处。人生很多事情，看似简单，但当我们真正地去做的时候，才发现并非易事。

我不怕被误解，因为时间会证明一切。
