Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

With its stillness and constellations
Your silence is that of a star

The water understands
Civilization well;
It wets my foot, but prettily,
It chills my life, but wittily,
It is not disconcerted,
It is not broken-hearted:
Well used, it decketh joy,
Adorneth, doubleth joy:
Ill used, it will destroy,
In perfect time and measure
With a face of golden pleasure
Elegantly destroy.

Water - Ralph Waldo Emerson
《水》——拉尔夫·瓦尔多·爱默生

All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother. I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.

以上是截至20150608的名言。最近看了土木壇子一篇文章，提到認真做事注重細節。我在整理這些名言時就發現即使是微軟的頁面也照樣有拼錯的單詞以及標點後不空格的情況，可能到了中國區質量一般就行了吧，反正中文頁面的英文都是裝飾性的。
