George Bernard Shaw
萧伯纳
While civilization has been improving our houses, it has not equally improved the men who are to inhabit them. It has created palaces, but it was not so easy to create noblemen and kings.
虽然文明一直在改善我们的住房,但它并没有同样改善住在其中的人。它创造了宫殿,但创造贵族和国王并不容易。
Henry David Thoreau
亨利·大卫·梭罗
When you take charge of your life, there is no longer need to ask permission of other people or society at large. When you ask permission, you give someone veto power over your life.
当你掌控自己的生活时,就不再需要征求他人或整个社会的同意。当你请求许可时,你给了别人对你生活的否决权。
Geoffrey F. Abert
杰弗里·F·阿伯特
Perhaps the greatest utopia would be if we could all realize that no utopia is possible; no place to run, no place to hide, just take care of business here and now.
也许最伟大的乌托邦是如果我们都能意识到没有乌托邦是可能的;没有地方可逃,没有地方可躲,现在就把这里的事处理好。
Jack Carroll
杰克·卡罗尔
Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history.
大多数人都有一种近乎无限的能力,认为一切都是理所当然的。人不能从历史的教训中学到很多东西,这是所有历史教训中最重要的一条。
Aldous Huxley
奥尔德斯·赫胥黎
Life is hard. It is not too short, it is too long. But you have to learn how to live; you have to have a sense of humour.
生活是困难的。它不是太短,而是太长。但你必须学会如何生活;你必须有幽默感。
Carolina Herrera
