把这一句，留给此刻的你

How often one reads a contemporary full-length novel and thinks quietly, mutinously, that it would have worked out better at half or a third the length.

有多少次，一个人在读一本当代的长篇小说时，会不动声色地、反叛地想，要是能读到一半或三分之一的篇幅就更好了。

— Ian McEwan 伊恩·麦克尤恩

关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。

Some people are suffering from lack of work, some from lack of water, many more from lack of wisdom.

有些人因缺乏工作而受苦，有些人因缺乏水而受苦，更多人因缺乏智慧而受苦。

Calvin Coolidge 卡尔文·柯立芝

Our observation of nature must be diligent, our reflection profound, and our experiments exact. We rarely see these three means combined; and for this reason, creative geniuses are not common.

我们对自然的观察必须勤奋，我们的反思必须深刻，我们的实验必须精确。我们很少看到这三种方法结合在一起;因此，有创造力的天才并不常见。

Denis Diderot 狄德罗

It's possible to become so comfortable with one's style and structure that one ceases to grow.

有可能变得对自己的风格和结构非常满意，以至于停止成长。
