"When Augustus Caesar legislated against the unmarried citizens of Rome, he declared them to be, in some sort, slayers of the people."Ah no, not these! These, who were childless, are not they who gave So many dead unto the journeying wave, The helpless nurslings of the cradling seas; Not they who doomed by infallible decrees Unnumbered man to the innumerable grave. But those who slay Are fathers. Theirs are armies. Death is theirs, The death of innocences and despairs; The dying of the golden and the grey. The sentence, when these speak it, has no Nay. And she who slays is she who bears, who bears.

改变决定人生
人的一生,大部分时间都在工作。对普通人而言,工作是他们最普通的生存状态。人之为人,都应当乐意并有能力去工作。诚实劳动的人认为要生存就必须工作;其实,对于一切生存着的和处于各种社会关系中的人来说,同样如此。当别人辛勤劳动的时候,怎么会有人游手好闲呢?那他怎么能保住自己的社会地位、赢得荣誉并承担责任呢?工作是最好的老师,它迫使每个人和其他人以及现实的社会打交道。如果我们研究名人传记,就会发现:那些最伟大的人都是那些在工作中最勤奋刻苦的人;都是那些在科学研究中孜孜不倦的人;都是那些在自己的工作岗位上顽强拼搏的人。实际上,人类的知识、才干和社会的进步、文明,都源自人的体力和脑力劳动。
