A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
使
Made

He who has mingled in the fray of duty that the brave endure, must have made foes. If you have none, small is the work that you have done.
在勇敢的人所能忍受的责任斗争中混在一起的人,一定会树敌。如果你没有,那么你所做的工作就是微不足道的。
Forgiveness is the answer to the child's dream of a miracle by which what is broken is made whole again, what is soiled is made clean again.

My solo album is dead and buried. We had the funeral. It was sad and I cried a lot but it made such a beautiful corpse that we had an open casket.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
When a judge assumes the power to decide which distinctions made in a statute are legitimate and which are not, he assumes the power to disapprove of any and all legislation, because all legislation makes distinctions.

They very seldom let me lose my cool. They made me like I was Polly Perfect, which was ridiculous so that when I bump into kids on the street they'd say 'I wish my Mom were like you.'
他们很少让我失去冷静。他们让我觉得我是完美的波莉,这太荒谬了,所以当我在街上遇到孩子时,他们会说:“我希望我妈妈像你一样。”
