"A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another. If these minds love one another, the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one other it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden."

佛曰：“所谓家庭，即是心之所依。若心彼此相爱，则家如花似锦；若心彼此相憎，则如风卷残叶。”

"A tragedy need not have blood and death; it's enough that it all be filled with that majestic sadness that is the pleasure of tragedy."

悲剧无需血腥和死亡，充满壮丽的哀伤便足够，这也是悲剧的本愿。

Jean Racine

法国剧作家，17世纪法国戏剧三杰之一

I'm thankful for my years spent with this family; for everything we shared, every chance we had to grow. I'll take the best of them and lead by their example; where ever I go. A friend told me to be honest with you, so here it goes.

This isn't what I want, but I'll take the high road. Maybe it's because I look at everything as a lesson, or I don't want to walk around angry. Or maybe it's because I finally understand. There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept; things we don't want to know, but have to learn, and people we can't live without, but have to let go.

感谢在这个大家庭中度过的时光，感谢我们曾分享的一切，我们共同成长的岁月。我会带走最好的回忆，指引我的方向。有朋友告诉我要诚实，所以我要说，这并非我所愿，但我会坦然接受。或许因为我在一切中学习，或许因为我不愿心怀愤怒地离开，或许因为我最终明白了，有些事我们不愿看到却必须接受，有些事我们不愿知晓却必须学习，有些人我们不愿离开却必须转身。

"Remembrance of things past is not necessarily the remembrance of things as they were."

对过去的追忆未必是如实的回忆。

"When I was younger I could remember anything, whether it happened or not; but my faculties are decaying, now, and soon I shall be so I cannot remember any but the latter. It is sad to go to pieces like this, but we all have to do it."

当我年轻时，我能记得所有事，发生过的或是没发生过的。但如今我的记忆正在衰退，很快我便会忘记所有事，只记得那些从未发生过的。如此的崩溃真实悲哀，但我们都别无选择。

Mark Twain

（30.11.1835-21.04.1910,美国著名作家）

"We all wear masks and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing our own skin."

我们都带着各自的面具，待要解开时却不得不连自己的皮肉一起揭走。

"All humanity is one undivided and indivisible family. I cannot detach myself from the wickedest soul."

人类是一个浑然天成密不可分的家庭，我们无法将自己与世界上最邪恶的灵魂划清界限。

真爱感觉不到负担，不嫌任何事麻烦

，为超出其所能的事做尝试，不为做不到的事找借口。因为它认为一切由自身而生，一切皆有可能。

"The herds seek out the great, not for their seed, but for their influence and the great welcome them out of vanity or need."

盛名终会消逝，再见，我曾拥有你，盛名我心明了，盛名如浮云，声名显赫能几时，至少我尝过个中滋味，却不是我生活的方向。

Marilyn Monroe

"I believe humanity was born from conflict. Maybe that's why in all of us lives a dark side. Some of us embrace it. Some have no choice. The rest of us fight it. And in the end, it's as natural as the air we breathe. Some point, we're forced to face the truth...ourselves.

我相信人性天生矛盾，因此我们都活在黑暗一面，有人欣然接受，有人无奈默许，还有人奋力反抗，到头来，它变得如呼吸的空气一般自然。在某一时刻，我们被迫面对真相......我们自己。

"I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me."

我是隐形人，只因人们拒绝看见我。
