The only medicine for suffering, crime, and all other woes of mankind, is wisdom. Teach a man to read and write, and you have put into his hands the great keys of the wisdom box. But it is quite another thing to open the box.

  • -- Thomas Henry Huxley 赫胥黎

智慧是治疗人类痛苦、犯罪和所有其他不幸的唯一良药。教一个人读书写字,你就把智慧宝盒的大钥匙交给了他。但打开盒子是另一回事。
