佛教中有⼀句话：初学者的⼼态；拥有初学者的⼼态是件了不起的事情。

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

查尔斯·布可夫斯基

At that age， I'd take any excuse to make estimates and do minor arithmetic. I'd calculate our gas mileage -- figure out useless statistics on things like grocery spending. I'd been hearing an ad campaign about smoking. I can't remember the details， but basically the ad said， every puff of a cigarette takes some number of minutes off of your life: I think it might have been two minutes per puff. At any rate， I decided to do the math for my grandmother. I estimated the number of cigarettes per days， estimated the number of puffs per cigarette and so on. When I was satisfied that I'd come up with a reasonable number， I poked my head into the front of the car， tapped my grandmother on the shoulder， and proudly proclaimed， "At two minutes per puff， you've taken nine years off your life！"

在那样的年纪，我会找任何借口做些估测或者小算术。我会计算油耗还有杂货花销等鸡毛蒜皮的小事。我听过一个有关吸烟的广告。我记不得细节了，但是广告大意是说，每吸一口香烟会减少几分钟的寿命，大概是两分钟。无论如何，我决定为祖母做个算术。我估测了祖母每天要吸几支香烟，每支香烟要吸几口等等，然后心满意足地得出了一个合理的数字。接着，我捅了捅坐在前面的祖母的头，又拍了拍她的肩膀，然后骄傲地宣称，"每天吸两分钟的烟，你就少活九年！"

杰夫·贝索斯

成功的人只是相信自己、肯定自己所作所为的平凡人。永远不要、绝对不要廉价出售自己。

约翰·洛克菲勒

我不是那种会让对我决心的爱减少的人。

I’m not a guy that’s going to let my love for my determination down.

勒布朗·詹姆斯

光是知道是不够的，必须加以运用；光是希望是不够的，非去做不可。

对邪恶的否认也就是对自由的否认。

罗洛·梅

不知什么是源由，哪里是源头就像是流水，无奈地流进宇宙不知哪里是终点，也不再勾留我像是风儿，无奈的吹过沙丘。
