The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.
译文：过度沉沦在情欲爱恋里，就会掉入苦海，对名利的欲望太过炽热，就会踏入火坑。赏析：我们一味贪图情欲的爽乐，就会丧失人生的追求。我们过分贪求名利，迟早会被它吞噬掉。不管是情欲还是名利，我们要合理地拥有它，正确地拥有又能看破它，才是一个智者。
最好的投资是那些能够创造价值的人，而不仅仅是想法本身。
译文：认识到过去所做的事是错误的，那么说明学问在日渐进步；能看到别人的言行有可取之处，说明德行操守在日渐提高。赏析：一个人的思想若要变得成熟，肯定要读书学习，更要学习别人的长处和优点。人愚昧无知不可怕，最怕愚昧无知还不自知，还不懂得学习和改变。
Art is not about beauty, it's about truth.
