对于小公司，最好等到它们有利润之后再投资。 - 每日文摘

一个人可以改变说话的腔调，但他无法改变下意识地打出的喷嚏的声音。一个人可以将他的单眼皮改成双眼皮，但无论多么高明的手术也无法改变他的眼神。

我真不知道在这个世界上我了解过谁。

玛格丽特·米切尔

一切好事都包含有一些懒散的成分，就像奶牛躺在铺满阳光的草地上。

尼采

我的生命中还有另一座小屋，在那里面，我的生命慢慢成熟。罗素把人生比喻成长河，而我把它看做是一座小屋，因为它曾承载我的生命，如今又将承载我的灵魂。

如果你希望成功，当以恒心为良友、以经验为参谋、以谨慎为兄弟、以希望为哨兵。

If you wish to succeed, you should use perdistence as your good friend, experiece as your reference, prudence as your brother and hope as your sentry.

I'm drawn to a lovely quote by St. Augustine in "The City of God," where he says, "It's a sin to judge any man by his post." In modern English that would mean it's a sinto come to any view of who you should talk to, dependent on their business card. It's not the post that should count. According to St. Augustine, only God can really put everybody in their place; he's going to do that on the Day of Judgment, with angels and trumpets, and the skies will open. Insane idea, if you're a secularist person, like me. But something very valuable in that idea, nevertheless.

我很喜欢圣奥古斯丁在“上帝之城”里的一句话，他说“以社会地位评价人是一种罪”。用现在的口吻说，看一个人的名片来决定你是否要和他交谈是罪。对圣奥古斯丁来说，人的价值不在他的社会地位，只有神可以决定一个人的价值，他将在天使围绕、小号奏鸣，天空破开的世界末日给于最后审判，如果你是像我一样的世俗论者，这想法太疯狂了，但这想法有它的价值。
