把这一句，留给此刻的你

I never felt I was quite the ticket academically. I always felt I had to put in an enormous amount of effort not to be disappointing. So I worked really hard, but at the time it suited me, because I didn't do very much else.

我从来没有觉得自己在学业上完全够格。我总是觉得我必须付出巨大的努力不让自己失望。所以我非常努力地工作，但在那个时候它很适合我，因为我没有做太多其他的事情。

关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。

Nature never appeals to intelligence until habit and instinct are useless. There is no intelligence where there is no need of change.

除非习惯和本能不起作用，否则自然永远不会求助于智力。没有需要改变的地方就没有智慧。

H. G. Wells 赫伯特·乔治·威尔斯

We are biological creatures. We are born, we live, we die. There is no transcendent purpose to existence. At best we are creatures of reason, and by using reason we can cure ourselves of emotional excess. Purged of both hope and fear, we find courage in the face of helplessness, insignificance and uncertainty.

我们是生物。我们出生，我们生活，我们死亡。存在没有超越的目的。我们至多是理性的产物，通过理性，我们可以治愈自己的情感过剩。清除了希望和恐惧，我们在无助、渺小和不确定中找到了勇气。

Jonathan Sacks 乔纳森·萨克斯

Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.

要有风度，要有自尊，要有个性。如果你这样做了，胜利自然会到来。

Paul Bryant 保罗·布莱恩特
