Nothing else so destroys the power to stand alone as the habit of leaning upon others. If you lean, you will never be strong or original. Stand alone or bury your ambition to be somebody in the world.

  • -- Orison Swett Marden 马登

没有什么比依赖他人的习惯更能摧毁独立的力量了。如果你倾斜,你将永远不会强大或原创。要么独自站着,要么埋没你想成为世界名人的雄心壮志。
