How often do we tell our own life story? How often do we adjust, embellish, make sly cuts? And the longer life goes on, the fewer are those around to challenge our account, to remind us that our life is not our life, merely the story we have told about our life.

人生最大的遗憾，莫过于轻易地放弃了不该放弃的，固执地坚持了不该坚持的。

Oh,to struggle against great odds,to meet enemies undaunted.

“每一本书都是一面镜子，每个读者看到的都是不同的倒影。”

"To write a biography is to walk in another's shoes, to see the world through their eyes."

做出伟大工作的唯一途径是热爱你所做的事。
