A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

Own
It is incumbent upon each of us to improve spending and savings practices to ensure our own individual financial security and preserve the collective economic well-being of our great society.
我们每个人都有责任改进支出和储蓄做法，以确保我们个人的财政安全，维护我们伟大社会的集体经济福祉。
I have become my own version of an optimist. If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door - or I'll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.
我成了自己版本的乐观主义者。如果我不能通过一扇门，我会通过另一扇门——或者我要做一扇门。无论现在多么黑暗，可怕的事情总会发生。
Death is someone you see very clearly with eyes in the center of your heart: eyes that see not by reacting to light, but by reacting to a kind of a chill from within the marrow of your own life.

Maybe it's just my own chronic morbidity and melancholia, but I really do think about it a great deal and quite often in the small hours of the night when, it is said, the greatest numbers of people die.

In the last analysis, the individual person is responsible for living his own life and for "finding himself." If he persists in shifting his responsibility to somebody else, he fails to find out the meaning of his own existence.

When nearly a third of our high school students do not graduate on time with their peers, we have work to do. We must design our middle and high schools so that no student gets lost in the crowd and disconnected from his or her own potential.
当我们近三分之一的高中生不能和他们的同龄人一起按时毕业时，我们就有工作要做。我们必须设计我们的初中和高中，使学生不会迷失在人群中，与自己的潜力脱节。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
If you make a living, if you earn your own money, you're free - however free one can be on this planet.
如果你谋生，如果你自己挣钱，你就是自由的——不管这个星球上的人有多自由。
If you practice an art, be proud of it and make it proud of you It may break your heart, but it will fill your heart before it breaks it; it will make you a person in your own right.
