译文：早知道人生像场大梦，何必被虚名束缚住自己。

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.

虽然这个世界充满了苦难，但是也充满了很多解决克服的方法。

I wanted to build something that was my own, something I could point to and say, I made that. It was the only way I saw to make life meaningful.
