A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
杰出
Eminent
My first novel was rejected by some of the most eminent publishers in the world. Starting again was a real wrench.
我的第一部小说被一些世界上最著名的出版商拒绝了。重新开始是件很痛苦的事。
Not a few other very eminent and scholarly men made the same request, urging that I should no longer through fear refuse to give out my work for the common benefit of students of Mathematics.
不少杰出的学者也提出了同样的要求，敦促我不要再因为害怕而拒绝为数学学生的共同利益而放弃我的工作。
It is folly for an eminent man to think of escaping censure, and a weakness to be affected with it. All the illustrious persons of antiquity, and indeed of every age in the world, have passed through this fiery persecution.
一个杰出的人想要逃避责难是愚蠢的，而受责难的影响是软弱的表现。古代所有的杰出人物，甚至世界上各个时代的人，都经历过这种激烈的迫害。
