我曾经以为世界是按部落划分的。然后我以为它是按贫富划分的。然后我以为它是按愚蠢和聪明划分的。但现在我知道它是按活着的人和死去的人划分的。
I used to think the world was broken down by tribes. Then I thought it was broken down by rich and poor. Then I thought it was broken down by stupid and smart. But I know now that it is broken down by people who are alive and people who are dead.
Our stories are our survival, our resistance, our hope.
Institutions matter more than we sometimes acknowledge.
People are unreasonable,illogical and self-centered;Love them anyway.If you are kind,people may accuse you of selfish,ulterior motives;Be kind anyway.If you are successful,you will win some false friends and some true enemies;Succeed anyway.The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow;Do good anyway.If you are honest and frank,people may cheat you;Be honest and frank anyway.People favor under dogs but follow only topdogs.Fight for a few underdogs anyway.What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight;Build anyway.If you find serenity and happiness,they may be jealous;Be happy anyway.People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.Help people anyway.Give the world the best you have,And it may never be enough;Give the world the best you have anyway.You see,in the final analysis,it is between you and God;It is never between you and them anyway.
自由是绝对必要的。
