生命的意义感来自持续参与创造性的自我更新过程。

世界上充满了显而易见的事情，但没有人会去注意它们。

"The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes."

尼古拉·马修

万物皆下品唯有读书高，书中自有黄金屋颜如玉千钟粟。

The most valuable crop we can grow is trust—with our consumers, our communities, and our environment.

我们能种植的最有价值的作物是信任——与消费者、社区和环境的信任。

理查德·布朗

文学是社会的良心。

Literature is the conscience of society.

克里斯塔·沃尔夫

天薄我福，吾厚吾德以迓之；天劳我形，吾逸吾心以补之；天阨我遇，吾亨吾道以通之。

陈继儒

我无时无刻不对自己的所作所为深感内疚，这不是因为我在这里（监狱），也不是讨好你们（假释官）。回首曾经走过的弯路，我多么想对那个犯下重罪的愚蠢的年轻人说些什么，告诉他我现在的感受，告诉他还可以有其他的方式解决问题。可是，我做不到了。那个年轻人早已淹没在岁月的长河里，只留下一个老人孤独地面对过去。重新做人？骗人罢了！小子，别再浪费我的时间了，盖你的章吧，我没有什么可说的了。

There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then. Then a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can't. That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. I got to live with that. Rehabilitated? It's just a bullshit word. So you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time.Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a shit.
