"The truth is rarely pure and never simple."
真相很少是纯粹的,也从来不简单。
Your smarts will come in handy because you will travel in a land of marvels. We humans -- plodding as we are -- will astonish ourselves. We'll invent ways to generate clean energy and a lot of it. Atom by atom, we'll assemble tiny machines that will enter cell walls and make repairs. This month comes the extraordinary but also inevitable news that we've synthesized life. In the coming years, we'll not only synthesize it, but we'll engineer it to specifications. I believe you'll even see us understand the human brain. Jules Verne, Mark Twain, Galileo, Newton -- all the curious from the ages would have wanted to be alive most of all right now. As a civilization, we will have so many gifts, just as you as individuals have so many individual gifts as you sit before me.
The beauty of mathematics only shows itself to more patient followers.
教学的全部艺术,不过是唤醒年轻人天生的好奇心,以便日后满足它。
世界不是一个愿望实现的工厂。
森林不仅仅是一种资源;它是我们留给后代的遗产。
The mind can assert anything and pretend it has proved it.
