However mean your life is, meet it and live it: do not shun it and call it hard names. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Things do not change, we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

  • -- Henry David Thoreau 亨利·大卫·梭罗

不论你的生活如何卑贱，你要面对它生活，不要躲避它，更别用恶言咒骂它。视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧。不要麻烦自己去找新的东西，无论是衣服还是朋友。万物不变，是我们在变。卖掉你的衣服，保留你的思想。
