At thirty man suspects himself a fool; Knows it at forty, and reforms his plan; At fifty chides his infamous delay, Pushes his prudent purpose to resolve; In all the magnanimity of thought Resolves; and re-resolves; then dies the same.

  • -- Edward Young 爱德华·杨格

三十岁的人怀疑自己是个傻瓜;四十岁时就知道了,并改变了他的计划;五十岁时斥责他那臭名昭著的拖延,促使他下定决心;在所有宽宏大量的思想决心;和重新解析;然后同样死去。
