Why should we learn history? One of my friends gives a vivid metaphor to illustrate the importance of history: One morning, you wake up and find you've lost all your memory, forgetting entirely of who you are.Think about how you should live in the future—you don't know anyone, which means you forget your own history.

——Professor Zhang Ming from Renmin University of China

Anyone with a firm love in their heart isn't likely to have it detected by those around.The only thing you can feel is the warmth in their eyes and the naivete in their smiles.The addition of affection makes them even softer and more sensitive.They become meticulous as if watching over a tender flame.They make those around sense the cozy and unrestrained tenderness of love in the atmosphere, instead of the fishy smell of hormones.

——Loveby Qing Shan

內心有著沉實戀情的人，不會讓身邊的人輕易察覺。你只會覺得他們的眼神中有暖意，笑容有童真，感情浸潤著他們，使他們更柔軟和敏感。他們像守護著一團火焰一樣，小心翼翼。他們讓身邊的人覺得空氣里有情緣的美好自在，而不是荷爾蒙的腥臊味道。

——慶山《戀情》

我們不能等待大自然的恩賜，我們必須向她索取——這就是我們的任務。
