节制欲念，修养身心，安贫乐道，摒除机巧，都是驱逐病魔的良方。

过去从未死去，它甚至不是过去。

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

Old paint on canvas, as it ages, sometimes becomes transparent. When that happens it is possible, in some pictures, to see the original lines: a tree will show through a woman's dress, a child makes way for a dog, a large boat is no longer on an open sea. That is called pentimento because the painter 'repented,' changed his mind. Perhaps it would be as well to say that the old conception, replaced by a later choice, is a way of seeing and then seeing again.

Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.
