　　an aim in life is the only fortune worth finding. pursue your object, be it what it will, steadily and indefatigably(不懈地).

　　man who has a settled purpose will surely succeed.

　　follow your own course, and let people talk.

　　life is a leaf of paper white, thereon each of us may write his word.

　　there is a limit to one's youth, but no limit to his wisdom. draw on the limitless wisdom during the short span of youth.

　　self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control, these three alone lead life to sovereign(独立的) power.

　　life is a flame, not an existence. life is an energy, not a substance.
