只有当一个民族意识到耕种田地和写诗一样有尊严时,这个民族才能繁荣昌盛。我们必须从生命的最底层开始,而不是从最顶层开始。
Booker T. Washington

Science seldom proceeds in the straightforward logical manner imagined by outsiders. Instead, its steps forward...are often very human events in which personalities and cultural traditions play major roles.
科学很少以局外人想象的那种直截了当的逻辑方式发展。相反,它的步伐向前……往往是非常人性化的事件,在其中个性和文化传统发挥着重要作用。
James D. Watson

It isn’t the absence of conscience or values that prevents us from being all we should be, it is simply the lack of moral courage.
不是没有良知或价值观阻止我们成为我们应该成为的人,而是缺乏道德勇气。

As human beings, we need to know that we are not alone, that we are not crazy or completely out of our minds, that there are other people out there who feel as we do, live as we do, love as we do, who are like us.
作为人类,我们需要知道我们并不孤单,我们没有发疯或完全失去理智,还有其他人和我们有同样的感受,和我们一样生活,和我们一样爱,和我们一样。

We must have a weak spot or two in a character before we can love it much.

It is not necessarily those lands which are the most fertile or most favored in climate that seem to me the happiest, but those in which a long struggle of adaptation between man and his environment has brought out the best qualities of both.
在我看来,并不一定是那些最肥沃或气候最适宜的土地是最幸福的,而是那些人类与其环境之间长期的适应斗争使两者都具备了最好的品质的土地。
