Publishing a volume of verse is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo.
出版一本诗集就像把一片玫瑰花瓣扔进大峡谷，等待回音。

给此刻的你，一点向前的力量。
关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。
Parents should be encouraged to read to their children, and teachers should be equipped with all available techniques for teaching literacy, so the varying needs and capacities of individual kids can be taken into account.
应该鼓励父母给他们的孩子读书，教师应该配备所有可用的识字教学技术，这样就可以考虑到每个孩子的不同需求和能力。
Worse than not realizing the dreams of your youth, would be to have been young and never dreamed at all.
年轻时根本没有梦想，比没有实现年轻时的梦想更糟糕。
