把这一句，留给此刻的你

We often take for granted that our lights will come on when we flip the light switch, but the reality is that our reliability standards and the current state of the transmission grid leave us all vulnerable to blackouts.

我们常常想当然地认为，当我们打开电灯开关时，我们的灯就会亮起来，但事实是，我们的可靠性标准和输电网络的当前状态让我们都容易受到停电的影响。

关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。

A great many things which in times of lesser knowledge we imagined to be superstitious or useless, prove today on examination to have been of immense value to mankind.

在我们知识较少的时代，我们认为许多事情是迷信的或无用的，但今天经过检验证明，它们对人类具有极大的价值。

Lafcadio Hearn 小泉八云

Nothing is impossible; there are ways that lead to everything, and if we had sufficient will we should always have sufficient means. It is often merely for an excuse that we say things are impossible.

没有什么是不可能的;有很多方法可以通向一切，如果我们有足够的意志，我们就应该有足够的手段。我们说事情是不可能的，往往只是为了找个借口。

Francois VI, Duc De La Rochefoucauld 弗朗索瓦六世，罗切福科公爵

Hope cannot be said to exist, nor can it be said not to exist. It is just like roads across the earth. For actually the earth had no roads to begin with, but when many men pass one way, a road is made.

希望是本无所谓有，无所谓无的。这正如地上的路；其实地上本没有路，走的人多了，也便成了路。

Lu Xun 鲁迅
