我认为人们相信天堂是因为他们不喜欢死亡的想法，因为他们想继续活着，也不喜欢别人搬进他们的房子、把他们的东西扔进垃圾桶的想法。
I think people believe in heaven because they don’t like the idea of dying, because they want to carry on living and they don’t like the idea that other people will move into their house and put their things into the rubbish.
"A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles."
黑暗修复了光明修不了的东西。
预测未来的唯一方法就是创造未来。
Life is nasty, brutish, and short.
译文：感叹白发，观察世间的道路。人们无不追求荣华，看重富贵而轻视贫贱。显赫的宫门，华丽的宫殿。年轻时入仕，幼年时就献上谋略。
The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.
《在陆军军官学校开学典礼的演说》（1924年6月16日）
未来是一个我们可能活不到看到的承诺。
