人们钻空子，肯定是因为激励制度有漏洞。

在思考一次战役时，我在内心与自己辩论，力求驳倒自己；在制订战役方案时，我是最谨小慎微的人。我总是扩大危险和意外，即使我看来高兴，其实我始终极度紧张和激动。

I have a vivid memory of what happened， and it was not what I expected. I expected to be applauded for my cleverness and arithmetic skills. "Jeff， you're so smart. You had to have made some tricky estimates， figure out the number of minutes in a year and do some division." That's not what happened. Instead， my grandmother burst into tears. I sat in the backseat and did not know what to do. While my grandmother sat crying， my grandfather， who had been driving in silence， pulled over onto the shoulder of the highway. He got out of the car and came around and opened my door and waited for me to follow. Was I in trouble？ My grandfather was a highly intelligent， quiet man. He had never said a harsh word to me， and maybe this was to be the first time？ Or maybe he would ask that I get back in the car and apologize to my grandmother. I had no experience in this realm with my grandparents and no way to gauge what the consequences might be. We stopped beside the trailer. My grandfather looked at me， and after a bit of silence， he gently and calmly said， "Jeff， one day you'll understand that it's harder to be kind than clever."

我清晰地记得接下来发生了什么，而那是我意料之外的。我本期待着小聪明和算术技巧能赢得掌声，但那并没有发生。相反，我的祖母哭泣起来。我的祖父之前一直在默默开车，把车停在了路边，走下车来，打开了我的车门，等着我跟他下车。我惹麻烦了吗？我的祖父是一个智慧而安静的人。他从来没有对我说过严厉的话，难道这会是第一次？还是他会让我回到车上跟祖母道歉？我以前从未遇到过这种状况，因而也无从知晓会有什么后果发生。我们在房车旁停下来。祖父注视着我，沉默片刻，然后轻轻地、平静地说："杰夫，有一天你会明白，善良比聪明更难。"

一滴水足够教一盆盛得满满的水溢出来，一个轻微的过失能够给那种罪恶多端暂逃法网的人带来惩罚。

最深刻的问题不是关于上帝的存在，而是关于世界的存在。

The most profound question is not about the existence of God, but about the existence of the world.

我认为失恋就像出麻疹，如果你不失上几次，就不会有免疫力。

人本身就不是什么长情的生物，至死不渝的爱情是违背天性的。
