I think the most important thing in life is to be happy.

我認(rèn)為生活中最重要的事情就是快樂。

The only way to tell the truth is to speak with authority, and the only way to speak with authority is to claim the right to tell the truth.

說出真相的唯一方式是以權(quán)威的口吻說話，而以權(quán)威的口吻說話的唯一方式是聲稱自己有權(quán)利說出真相。

J·M·庫切

The richness I achieve comes from Nature, the source of my inspiration.

我所獲得的豐富來自大自然，那是我靈感的源泉。

盧卡·羅西

若你陷入困境，不要抱怨父母，而要從錯(cuò)誤中學(xué)習(xí)。

比爾·蓋茨

At that age， I'd take any excuse to make estimates and do minor arithmetic. I'd calculate our gas mileage -- figure out useless statistics on things like grocery spending. I'd been hearing an ad campaign about smoking. I can't remember the details， but basically the ad said， every puff of a cigarette takes some number of minutes off of your life: I think it might have been two minutes per puff. At any rate， I decided to do the math for my grandmother. I estimated the number of cigarettes per days， estimated the number of puffs per cigarette and so on. When I was satisfied that I'd come up with a reasonable number， I poked my head into the front of the car， tapped my grandmother on the shoulder， and proudly proclaimed， "At two minutes per puff， you've taken nine years off your life！"

在那樣的年紀(jì)，我會(huì)找任何借口做些估測或者小算術(shù)。我會(huì)計(jì)算油耗還有雜貨花銷等雞毛蒜皮的小事。我聽過一個(gè)有關(guān)吸煙的廣告。我記不得細(xì)節(jié)了，但是廣告大意是說，每吸一口香煙會(huì)減少幾分鐘的壽命，大概是兩分鐘。無論如何，我決定為祖母做個(gè)算術(shù)。我估測了祖母每天要吸幾支香煙，每支香煙要吸幾口等等，然后心滿意足地得出了一個(gè)合理的數(shù)字。接著，我捅了捅坐在前面的祖母的頭，又拍了拍她的肩膀，然后驕傲地宣稱，"每天吸兩分鐘的煙，你就少活九年！"
