生命太短暂了，没时间恨一个人那么久。

Women don’t need permission to shine. Just turn on your light.

The sociological imagination is the most fruitful form of self-consciousness.

当你为他人的看法而活时，你就已经死了。

People are curious. A few people are. They will be driven to find things out, even trivial things. They will put things together, knowing all along that they may be mistaken. You see them going around with notebooks, scraping the dirt off gravestones, reading microfilm, just in the hope of seeing this trickle in time, making a connection, rescuing one thing from the rubbish.

人生的意义是自己找到的。

译文：年轻的时候读书并没有取得深刻的理解，到了晚年的时候并没有付出多大努力却取得了惊人的成就。赏析：不管读书还是做事，我们要尽量做好，即使当时不理解，迟早有一天会明白其中的道理。年轻时不理解，是因为我们的社会阅历和人生经验不够丰富。
