编者按：
反思自己的过错
以至于不重蹈覆辙才是真正的悔悟
比他人优越并无任何高贵之处
真正的高贵在于超越过去的自我
True Nobility
In a calm sea every man is a pilot
But all sunshine without shade
all pleasure without pain
is not life at all
Take the lot of the happiest
-it is a tangled yarn
Bereavements and blessings
one following another
make us sad and blessed by turns
Even death itself makes life more loving
Men come closest to their true seives in the sober moments of life
under the shadows of sorrow and loss
In the affairs of life or of business
it is not intellect that tells so much as character
not brains so much as heart
not genius so much as self-control
patience
and discipline
regulated by judgment
I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more serio
-usly within begins to live more simply without
In an age of extravagance and waste
I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are
To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance
There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man
The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self
