居逆境中,周身皆针砭药石,砥节砺行而不觉;处顺境内,眼前尽兵刃戈矛,销膏靡骨而不知。
处于逆境中,就好比周身都扎着针、敷着药;冥冥中却能磨炼人的意志、培养高尚的品行。处于顺境中,就好比被各种各样的兵器包围;冥冥中掏空了身体,消磨了向上进取的意志。
No one will protect what they don't care about, and no one will care about what they have never experienced.
A picture held us captive. And we could not get outside it, for it lay in our language and language seemed to repeat it to us inexorably.
"No hay peor dictadura que la del olvido."
