If he does really think that there is no distinction between virtue and vice,why, Sir, when he leaves our houses let us count our spoons.

  • -- Samuel Johnson 塞缪尔·约翰逊

如果他真的认为美德和邪恶没有区别,为什么,先生,当他离开我们的房子时,让我们数一数我们的勺子。

I have learned two lessons in my life: first, there are no sufficient literary, psychological, or historical answers to human tragedy, only moral ones. Second, just as despair can come to one another only from other human beings, hope, too, can be given to one only by other human beings.

在我的一生中,我学到了两个教训:第一,对于人类悲剧,没有足够的文学、心理或历史答案,只有道德答案。第二,正如绝望只能从别人那里得到一样,希望也只能从别人那里得到。

If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.

如果是不对的,就不要做;如果不是真的,就别说出来。
