A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
改革
Reform
It is not the reformer's function to inform people of the truth-- in most cases they already know it. It is his task, rather, as the name implies, to reform them, to change them in such away that they will accept and be guided by the truth that they know.
改革者的职责不是告诉人们真相——在大多数情况下，他们已经知道真相了。这是他的任务，相反，正如名字所暗示的，改革他们，改变他们，使他们能够接受并被他们所知道的真理所引导。
You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful.
如果不改进个人，就不可能建设一个更美好的世界。为此目的，我们每个人都必须为自己的进步而努力，同时对全人类负有共同的责任，我们的特别责任是帮助我们认为最有用的人。
