It is not likely that posterity will fall in love with us, but not impossible that it may respect or sympathize; so a man would rather leave behind him the portrait of his spirit than a portrait of his face.

  • -- Robert Louis Stevenson 罗伯特·路易斯·史蒂文森

后代不太可能爱上我们，但也不是不可能尊重或同情我们;所以一个人宁愿留下他的精神画像，也不愿留下他的脸画像。
