Work spares us from three evils: boredom， vice， and need.

道理明白则文辞畅达，气势充沛则言辞得当。

对森林最大的威胁不是采伐，而是漠不关心。

过去并没有死去；它甚至还没有过去。

"A book is a fragile creature, it suffers the wear of time, it fears rodents, the elements and clumsy hands. So the librarian protects the books not only against mankind but also against nature and devotes his life to this war with the forces of oblivion."

I love the process more than the outcome.
