If a weakly mortal is to do anything in the world besides eat the bread thereof, there must be a determined subordination of the whole nature to the one aim no trifling with time, which is passing, with strength which is only too limited.

  • -- Beatrice Potter Webb 比阿特丽斯·波特·韦伯

如果一个虚弱的凡人想要在这个世界上做任何事情,除了吃面包,就必须有一个坚定的服从于一个目标的整体本性,而不是与时间无关,时间是流逝的,力量是有限的。
