Reading history makes people wise, poetry witty, mathematics thoughtful, science profound, ethics solemn, logic and rhetoric makes people eloquent.
读史使人明智，读诗使人灵秀，数学使人周密，科学使人深刻，伦理学使人庄重，逻辑修辞之学使人善辩；凡有所学，皆成性格。
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (弗里德里希·威廉·尼采 ):
Human life can not be measured by the length of time. When the heart is full of love, the moment is eternal! ——It really can’t be measured by the length of time.
人类的生命，不能以时间长短来衡量，心中充满爱时，刹那即永恒！——真的是不能以时间长短加以衡量。
Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy (列夫·尼古拉耶维奇·托尔斯泰):
What matters is not the quantity of knowledge, but the quality of knowledge. Some people know a lot, but don’t know the most useful thing.
重要的不是知识的数量，而是知识的质量，有些人知道很多很多，但却不知道最有用的东西。
Euripides (欧里庇得斯):
Wise people choose their own direction.
有智慧的人自己选择方向。
Aristotle (亚里士多德):
I have learned this through philosophy: I act out of self-consciousness, others act only because of fear of the law.
我通过哲学了解了这一点：我行事是出于自觉，他人行事只是因为害怕法律。
