孤独可以使人能干，也可以使人笨拙。

The painter must give a completely accurate account of their experience of looking at the subject.

画家必须完全准确地描述他们观察主题的体验。

我一直在谈论成功和失败。成功的有趣之处是，我们时常以为我们知道成功是什么，如果我现在说，这个屏幕后面站着一个非常成功的人，你心里马上就会产生一些想法。你会想，这个人可能很有钱，在某些领域赫赫有名，我对成功的理解是。首先，我是一个对成功非常有兴趣的人，我想要成功，我总是想着“要怎样我才能更成功？”，但当我渐渐长大，我越来越疑惑，究竟什么是“成功”的真正意义。

What I think I've been talking about really is success and failure. And one of the interesting things about success is that we think we know what it means. If I said that there's somebody behind the screen who's very successful, certain ideas would immediately come to mind. You'd think that person might have made a lot of money, achieved renown in some field. My own theory of success -- I'm somebody who's very interested in success, I really want to be successful, always thinking, how can I be more successful? But as I get older, I'm also very nuanced about what that word "success" might mean.

一个人若为他的工作而努力，而没有其他企图的话，是很能引起人家的共鸣的。

张恨水

夫志当存高远，慕先贤，绝情欲，弃疑滞，使庶几之志，揭然有所存，恻然有所感；忍屈伸，去细碎，广咨问，除嫌吝，虽有淹留，何损于美趣，何患于不济。若志不强毅，意不慷慨，徒碌碌滞于俗，默默束于情，永窜伏于平庸，不免于下流矣。

诸葛亮

在幽默的领域里，重复的威力是很大的。几乎任何一个用词确切一成不变的习惯用语，只要每隔一段时间郑重地重复它五六次，最后总是逼得人家忍不住笑起来。

马克吐温

如无舵这舟，无衔之马，漂荡奔逸，终亦何所底乎。
