We are face to face with our destiny and we must meet it with a high and resolute courage. For us is the life of action, of strenuous performance of duty; let us live in the harness, striving mightily; let us rather run the risk of wearing out than rusting out.

  • -- Theodore Roosevelt 西奥多·罗斯福

我们正面临着我们的命运,我们必须以崇高和坚定的勇气来迎接它。对我们来说,生命是行动的生命,是勤奋履行职责的生命;让我们生活在挽具里,奋力拼搏;让我们冒着磨损而不是生锈的危险吧。
