能源独立不仅仅是一个目标；它是国家安全的必需品。

译文：要发勇猛心。人们不肯改过，多半是因为因循守旧、不肯向前；我们要鼓舞振作起来，不要迟疑，不要等待。对于小的过恶，要如同肉中有芒刺一般，立刻剔除；对于大的过恶，要像毒蛇咬自己的手指一样，要快速斩断，没有丝毫的停滞，这就是《周易》中所说的风雷之所以有益处的原因。

说出真相的唯一方式是以权威的口吻说话。

Read, read, read. Read everything — trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.

Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.

Little grass, your steps are small, but you possess the earth beneath you.

成功就是不断失败不失信心。
