子曰：“君子求诸己，小人求诸人。”
【译文】 孔子说：“君子求自己，小人求别人。”
生活是记忆与遗忘之间永无止境的斗争。
Concerning the gods, I have no means of knowing whether they exist or not or of what sort they may be, because of the obscurity of the subject, and the brevity of human life.
We cannot change, we cannot move away from what we are, until we thoroughly accept what we are.
