“What was his place? he wondered. Where was his world? He had sometimes stood on the riverbank and told himself: Deep down in the cold water is your world; a rock lashed to your feet is your clothing for that world. To enter it you need only to climb to the place above the rapids, where the pool is, where it is always calm, so it must be deep, and there bury yourself and leave a world that is not your own and find a garden, long fields already cleared and cribs already filled, a new place in which a weakness in a man is a matter for a word or chide, not a break through which the terrors of the world flow in.”

“He’d discovered that most of the terrors that stalked the night weren’t really terrors at all. They were mostly like regular folks, just trying to live their lives. As long as they were left alone they were perfectly harmless except for the occasional bite on the neck. Humans were the real terrors, always getting worked up and looking to kill something.”

“Sometimes life will be awesome. Sometimes, life will look blurry. Along the way in the journey of life, sometimes, life will be colder than warmer and sometimes warmer than colder but in all things we must remember that it is never over for a purposeful journey of life until the journey of life is over. Be it rough or smooth, good or bad, we must accomplish the task. It shall always not be good and it shall always not be bad; we only have to work hard.”

“THE GOOD LIFE requires that we take pleasure in new things; A GOOD LIFE requires that we take pleasure in moments. To enjoy THE GOOD LIFE we have to get ahead; to enjoy A GOOD LIFE we have to make the trip worthwhile. THE GOOD LIFE is supported by feeding our pocketbooks; A GOOD LIFE is supported by feeding our souls.”

“我要百分之百地发挥自己地能力，不达到极限绝不罢休。想拿的就拿，不想拿的就不拿，就这样生存下去。不行的话，到不行的时候再另行考虑。反过来想，不公平的社会同时也是大有用武之地的社会。” “这话像是有些我行我素的味道。” 我说。 “不过，我并不是仰脸望天静等苹果掉进嘴里，我在尽我的一切努力，在付出比你大十倍的努力。” “恐怕是的。” 我承认。 “所以，有时我环顾世人就气不打一处来——这些家伙为什么不知道努力呢？不努力何必还牢骚满腹呢？” 我惊讶地看着永泽的脸：“在我的印象中，世上的人也都在辛辛苦苦拼死拼活地忙个没完，莫不是我看错了？” “那不是努力，只是劳动。”
