关于学习、善意与成长,读一句,再想一想。

The student must remember, for his consolation...that his failures are almost as important to the cause of science and to those who follow him in the same road, as his successes. It is much to know what we cannot do in any given direction---the first step, indeed, toward the accomplishment of what we can do.

为了安慰他,学生必须记住……他的失败对于科学事业和那些追随他的人来说,几乎和他的成功一样重要。知道我们在任何方向上都不能做什么是很重要的——事实上,这是实现我们所能做的事情的第一步。
