把这一句，留给此刻的你

I was trying to make something really hard, but then I thought I should make something really soft instead, that could be molded into different shapes. That was how I came up with the first plastic. I called it Bakelite.

我试着做一些非常硬的东西，但后来我想我应该做一些非常软的东西，可以塑造成不同的形状。这就是我如何想出第一个塑料。我叫它胶木。

Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter.

家庭是指引我们的指南针。它们是我们攀登高峰的动力，是我们偶尔跌倒时的安慰。

All of your scholarship, all your study of Shakespeare and Wordsworth would be vain if at the same time you did not build your character and attain mastery over your thoughts and your actions

如果你不能塑造自己的性格，不能控制自己的思想和行为，那么你对莎士比亚和华兹华斯的所有研究都将是徒劳的

如果我们想要改变一些事情，我们必须从理解开始。但是如果我们想要爱一些东西，我们必须从接受开始。
