Poverty alleviation isn’t about filling stomachs—it’s about restoring dignity.

No one can become fully aware of the very essence of another human being unless he loves him.

贪心不足蛇吞象，知足才能心安。  

世界充满了迹象和奇迹，但我们对它们视而不见。

领导力就是做出今天艰难的决定，以造福子孙后代。

每首歌都有自己的旅程。

The best way to predict the future is to create it.

I'm drawn to a lovely quote by St. Augustine in "The City of God," where he says, "It's a sin to judge any man by his post." In modern English that would mean it's a sinto come to any view of who you should talk to, dependent on their business card. It's not the post that should count. According to St. Augustine, only God can really put everybody in their place; he's going to do that on the Day of Judgment, with angels and trumpets, and the skies will open. Insane idea, if you're a secularist person, like me. But something very valuable in that idea, nevertheless.
