The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions.A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing.
生命的最高体现在于:一个生命能够自主引导自己的行动。总是受他人指导的事物有些像是一种死物。
不要让任何人告诉你你做不到某件事。
最重要的是忠于自己,忠于自己的声音,忠于自己的愿景。
I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use—silence, exile, and cunning.
