"To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries."

The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success.

Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.

Good means not merely not to do wrong， but rather not to desire to do wrong.

We have to own our mistakes and learn from them.

所谓经验，乃是人们为其错误贴上的标签。
