The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them; a man may live long, yet get little from life. (Michel de Montaigne)
生命的价值不在于寿命的长短,而在于如何善用时光;人或许可以长命百岁,但却一事无成。

Humility is the sweet root in the soil, from which all lofty virtues germinate and grow. (Socrates)
谦逊是藏于土中甜美的根,所有崇高的美德由此发芽滋长。

Every soil, where he is well, is to a valiant man his natural country. (Philip Massinger)
勇敢的人随遇而安,所到之处都是故乡。

True happiness is of a retired nature, and an enemy to pomp and noise. (Joseph Addison)
真正的幸福不显山露水,它摈弃浮华和喧嚣。

It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible. (Oscar Wilde)
只有浅薄的人才不根据表象作出判断。世界上真正的奥秘都是有迹象的,而并非是毫无蛛丝马迹的。
