A single conversation across the table with a wise man is better than ten years mere study of books.
与智者隔桌而谈,胜过十年读书。
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
朗费罗
I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better.
我不需要一个随我改变而改变,随我点头而点头的朋友;我的影子做得更好。
Plutarch

The greenest home is the one you don't build. If you really want to save the Earth, move in with another family and share a house that's already built. Better yet, live in the forest and eat whatever the squirrels don't want.
最环保的房子是你没有建造的。如果你真的想拯救地球,那就搬到另一个家庭,和他们一起住在已经建好的房子里。更好的是,住在森林里,吃松鼠不想吃的任何东西。

It's not possible to be perfect - you can always do something better. I'm never proud of what I've done. Sometimes, I'm not ashamed.
完美是不可能的——你总能做得更好。我从来没有为我所做的感到骄傲。有时候,我并不感到羞耻。

I see myself as a citizen of the planet. Even as a child, I always found it mindless to root for your own team. I was puzzled by the fact that people said their own team was better than other teams simply because it was theirs.
我把自己看作是这个星球的公民。甚至当我还是个孩子的时候,我就发现为自己的团队加油是愚蠢的。人们说他们自己的球队比其他球队好,只是因为这是他们的球队,这让我很困惑。
