Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony.

【译文】 子夏说：“重贤轻色、尽心孝顺父母、尽力献身国家、交朋友言而有信的人，即使没有高等学历，我也认为他已经受到了良好的教育。”

Music is the moonlight in the gloomy night of life.

"The more you give, the more you receive."

And the thing about a successful life is that a lot of the time, our ideas of what it would mean to live successfully are not our own. They're sucked in from other people; chiefly, if you're a man, your father, and if you're a woman, your mother. Psychoanalysis has been drumming home this message for about 80 years. No one's quite listening hard enough, but I very much believe it's true.
