Quotes

If wrinkles end up being carved into our foreheads, then the only thing we can do is to make sure that they don't get ingrained onto our hearts.

——Peter Ho-sun Chan,director

如果皺紋終將刻在我們的額頭，我們唯一能做的，就是不讓它刻在我們心上。

Motherhood is a journey of tolerance and wisdom. I,especially, admire some mothers,who build a strong sense of intimacy with their children when they are young and know how to,appropriately, back away after they've grown up. Parenthood isn't a permanent occupation but one of life's deep affinities. We do not want our children to feel that their childhoods are poor and barren, and we do not want them to feel that their adulthood is suffocating, either.

——Zhao Jie, author

做母親是一場心胸和智慧的遠行。我欽佩一些母親，她們在孩子年幼時給予強烈的親密，又在孩子長大后學會得體地退出。親子關系不是恒久的占有，而是生命中一場深厚的緣分。我們既不能使孩子感到童年貧瘠，又不能讓孩子覺得成年窒息。

——作家趙婕

I, also, once wasted time and was even reckless to the point of not being afraid to die. But the moment I fell in love with you, I began to wish that I can live to be one hundred.

——Zhu Shenghao, translator

我也曾把光陰浪費甚至莽撞到視死如歸，然后因為愛上你而渴望長命百歲。

——翻譯家朱生豪

Entrepreneurship is finding discomfort, accustoming oneself to discomfort and treating discomfort as comfort.

——Wang Shi, entrepreneur

創業就是找不舒服，就是習慣不舒服，就是把不舒服當舒服。

——企業家王石

Eighteen-year-old guys are proud of their good looks and vigor, that's youth. If a thirtyyear-old guy says he's good looking and energetic, that's idiocy. Even out of the most beautiful girls, who would dare say they are still bewitching by the time they've made it to thirty? None. After thirty, all of our youth, dreams and passion have already been concentrated on our pursuits in our careers,lives, futures and contributions to society.

——Yu Minhong, president of New Oriental Education and Technology Group

18歲的男生以英俊為驕傲，是青春；30歲的男生說自己英俊，很白癡。女生長得再美，有哪個女生到了30歲還敢說老娘長得挺妖嬈的？沒有。30歲以后，我們所有的青春、夢想、激情都集中在了對事業、生活、未來和對社會貢獻的追求上。

——新東方教育集團董事長俞敏洪
