人生最大的错误是不断担心会犯错。 友谊是精神的融合，心灵的联姻，道德的纽结。——佩恩 如果为了安全而不和大海在一起，船就失去了存在的意义。 不抱有一丝幻想，不放弃一点机会，不停止一日努力。 名人之所以能够成为名人，是因为他们在同伴嬉乐或休息时不停地攀登；凡人之所以成为凡人，是因为别人忙于攀登时他却安然入睡。 人越是高兴的事情，越爱隐藏；越是痛苦的事情，越爱小题大作。 一粥一饭，当思来之不易。 其身正，不令而行；其身不正，虽令不从。——《论语·子路》 仇恨永远不能化解仇恨，只有宽容才能化解仇恨，这是永恒的至理。 成功这件事，自己才是老板！ 学习是劳动，是充满思想的劳动。——乌申斯基 不去耕耘，不去播种，再肥的沃土也长不出庄稼，不去奋斗，不去创造，再美的青春也结不出硕果。
