When I was young, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people.
年輕時,我仰慕聰明人。現在老了,我仰慕厚道的人。
- Abraham Joshua Heschel, theology professor (1907-1972)
The average man, who does not know what to do with his life, wants another one which will last forever.
凡人活著不知做些什麼,卻想得到永生。
- Anatole France, novelist, essayist, Nobel laureate (1844-1924)
It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion, it is easy in solitude to live after your own; but the great man is he who, in the midst of the world, keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.
人在江湖,隨波逐流再容易不過;孤身一人,堅持已見也很容易。偉人則即使身在江湖,依舊特立獨行,滿心愉悅。
- Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher (1803-1882)
