Nothing else matters much -- not wealth, nor learning, nor even health -- without this gift: the spiritual capacity to keep zest in living. This is the creed of creeds, the final deposit and distillation of all important faiths: that you should be able to believe in life.

  • -- Harry Emerson Fosdick 美国牧师福斯迪克

没有这一天赋——保持生活热情的精神能力,没有什么比财富、学识甚至健康更重要的了。这是信条的信条,是所有重要信仰的最终沉淀和升华:你应该能够相信生活。
