"Never let your ego get in the way of doing what's right."

Is there any relief from some of thesepressures that I've been outlining? I think there is. I just want to turn to afew of them. Let's take meritocracy. This idea that everybody deserves to getwhere they get to, I think it's a crazy idea, completely crazy. I will support any politician of Left and Right, with any halfway-decent meritocratic idea; I am a meritocrat in that sense. But I think it's insane to believe that we will ever make a society that is genuinely meritocratic; it's an impossible dream.

成功的人无论周围发生什么，都保持积极的生活态度。

The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it.

冒着显得荒谬的风险，让我说，真正的革命者是被伟大的爱所引导的。

儒家所谓，“纵心所欲不逾矩”，道家所谓，“无为”，佛家所谓，“清净虚空”，其实说的都是一个道理，就是精神上的自由自在的状态。达到这种境界，就消解了得与失、荣与辱的界限，一切的一切就如同“庭前花开花落”、“天上云卷云舒”一般自然而然，荣辱不惊，无忧无惧。
