You have a good many little gifts and virtues, but there is no need of parading them, for conceit spoils the finest genius. There is not much danger that real talent or goodness will be overlooked long, and the great charm of all power is modesty.

-- Louisa May Alcott 路易莎·梅·阿尔科特

你有许多小的天赋和美德，但是没有必要炫耀它们，因为自负会毁掉最优秀的天才。真正的才华和善良不会被长期忽视，所有力量的最大魅力在于谦虚。
