Why should we think upon things that are lovely? Because thinking determines life. It is a common habit to blame life upon the environment. Environment modifies life but does not govern life. The soul is stronger than its surroundings.

-- William James 威廉·詹姆斯

我们为什么要去想那些可爱的东西呢?因为思考决定生活。把生活归咎于环境是一种普遍的习惯。环境改变生命，但并不支配生命。灵魂比周围的环境更强大。
