我热爱生活，但没有成为它的奴隶；我向往自由，但它并没有成为我的羁绊。— 亚瑟.本森
Remember what should be remembered, and forget what should be forgotten.Alter what is changeable, and accept what is mutable.
If I take death into my life, acknowledge it, and face it squarely, I will free myself from the anxiety of death and the pettiness of life - and only then will I be free to become myself. Martin Heidegger 《Being and Time》
You can’t ever reach perfection, but you can believe in an asymptote toward which you are ceaselessly striving. — Paul Kalanithi 《When Breath Becomes Air》
人类的生命，不能以时间长短来衡量，心中充满爱时，刹那即为永恒！——尼采

“Envy not success, nor pity failure, for you know not what is success or failure in the soul's reckoning. Call not a thing calamity, nor joyous event, until you decide, or witness, how it is used. For is a death a calamity if it saves the lives of thousands? And is a life a event if it has caused nothing but grief? Yet even this you should not judge, but keep always your own counsel, and allow other theirs." ---- Neale Donald Walsch (Conversation with God, Book 1, page 33).
"See the flower as dying and you will see the flower sadly. Yet see the flower as part of a whole tree that is changing, and will soon bear fruit, and you see the flower’s true beauty. When you understand that the blossoming and the falling away of the flower is a sign that the tree is ready to bear fruit, then you understand life." Neale Donald Walsch (Conversation with God Book 3, pg 127).
