把这一句，留给此刻的你

A minority is powerless while it conforms to the majority; it is not even a minority then; but it is irresistible when it clogs by its whole weight.

少数服从多数，就没有力量;那时它甚至不是少数;但当它被整个重量卡住时，它是无法抗拒的。

— Henry David Thoreau 亨利·大卫·梭罗

关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。

Success is not built on success. It's built on failure. It's built on frustration. Sometimes its built on catastrophe.

成功不是建立在成功之上的。它建立在失败之上。它建立在挫折之上。有时它建立在灾难之上。

Sumner Redstone 雷石东

Try a thing you haven't done three times. Once, to get over the fear of doing it. Twice, to learn how to do it. And a third time to figure out whether you like it or not.

做一件你没做过三次的事。一次，克服做这件事的恐惧。两次，学会怎么做。第三次，看看你喜不喜欢。

Virgil Thomson 维吉尔·汤姆森

Most of the basic truths of life sound absurd at first hearing.

人生的大多数基本真理乍听之下都是荒谬的。
