"In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take."

The chess-board is the world; the pieces are the phenomena of the universe; the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature.  

You can't control who loves you, but you can control who you love.

Dream big, work hard, stay focused, and surround yourself with good people.

译文：别人不如自己的地方，不可以拿出来，在他面前卖弄；别人做不了的善事，不能因自己做过而拿出来炫耀；别人能力比不上我，不能拿来难为别人、压制别人；即使自己很有才华，也要懂得收敛起来，不要招摇，做到看起来很平凡。

科学中的创造力来自于将别人没想到要联系的想法联系起来。
