The time which we have at our disposal every day is elastic; the passions that we feel expand it, those that we inspire contract it; and habit fills up what remains.
我们每天支配的时间是有弹性的；我们感受到的激情会扩展它，我们激发的激情会收缩它；而习惯会填补剩下的部分。
Only when one plunges into the powerful current of the times will one's life shine brilliantly.
"The soul is not a thing, it is a quality or aspect of a thing, and it is the quality of a thing that is most precious."
有些故事最好不被讲述。
The past is never dead. It's not even past.
钱财地位，往往成为丛集怨恨的渊薮；才华能力，常常就是招致灾祸的根由；名望声誊，往往成为引来毁谤的媒介；欢欣快乐，常常就是走向悲凉的开始。
