福楼拜认为不能用一种艺术形式解释另一种，伟大的画作无需言语解说。
Flaubert believed that it was impossible to explain one art form in terms of another, and that great paintings required no words of explanation.
释义：当遭受他人的侮辱时，要能做到面不改色，保持常态；察觉到别人的过失，绝不四处宣扬；发现对方的奸诈意图，也不会因愤怒而立即摊牌。真正的关键在于，要将自己的才能与锋芒隐藏起来，耐心等待最适合行动的时机。一个人若立志成为翱翔天际的苍鹰，就不要去参与枝头鸟雀的无谓争斗。
In other words, hold your horses when you're coming to judge people. You don't necessarily know what someone's truevalue is. That is an unknown part of them, and we shouldn't behave as though it is known. There is another source of solace and comfort for all this. When we think about failing in life, when we think about failure, one of the reasons why we fear failing is not just a loss of income, a loss of status. What we fear is the judgment and ridicule of others. And it exists.
生活是在成为个人和成为社区成员之间的持续斗争。
生活的艺术在于懂得何时坚持，何时放手。
