把这一句，留给此刻的你

Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. They are but improved means to an unimproved end.

我们的发明往往是漂亮的玩具，分散我们的注意力从严肃的事情。它们只是改进的手段，以达到未改进的目的。

— 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。

Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish.

语言不能很好地表达思想。它们总是在表达出来之后立刻变得有些不同，有些扭曲，有些愚蠢。

Hermann Hesse 黑塞

Creativity is not the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found.

创造力不是发现一件东西，而是在发现之后将它变成某种东西。

James Russell Lowell 洛厄尔

The people who say dreams never come true, must have been asleep when opportunity knocked.

那些说梦想永远不会成真的人，一定是在机遇敲门时睡着了。
