Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively. Strive to get clear notions about all. Give up no science entirely; for science is but one.

  • -- Marcus Annaeus Seneca 马库斯·安纳尤斯·塞内卡

不要逃避辛苦,让自己因这样或那样的才能而变得卓越;只是不可专心在一个枝子上。努力对所有事情都有清晰的概念。完全不放弃科学;因为科学只是其中之一。
