历史不仅仅是关于过去；它是关于过去如何塑造未来。

The best way to predict the future is to create it.

The world is almost peaceful when you stop trying to understand it.

The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you are, ever after, secure in your ability to survive. You will never truly know yourself, or the strength of your relationships, until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won, and it has been worth more than any qualification I ever earned.
