要追究一个人自己或一切生物生存的意义或目的，从客观的观点看来，我总觉得是愚蠢可笑的。可是每个人都有一些理想，这些理想决定着他的努力和判断的方向。就在这个意义上，我从来不把安逸和享乐看作生活目的本身——我把这种伦理基础叫做猪栏的理想。照亮我的道路，是善、美和真。”—— 爱因斯坦（《我的世界观》）
"I have never looked upon ease and happiness as ends in themselves -- this critical basis I call the ideal of a pigsty. The ideals that have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth."-- Albert Einstein (The World As I See It)
“人生来就不是为了被打败的，人能够被毁灭，但是不能够被打败。”—— 海明威（《老人与海》）
"Man is not made for defeat … [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated."-- Ernest Hemingway (The Old Man and the Sea)
“天将降大任于斯人也，必先苦其心志，劳其筋骨，饿其体肤，空乏其身，行拂乱其所为，所以动心忍性，增益其所不能。”—— 孟子（《孟子·告子下》）
"Thus, when Heaven is about to confer a great office on any man, it first exercises his mind with suffering, and his sinews and bones with toil. It exposes his body to hunger, and subjects him to extreme poverty. It confounds his undertakings. By all these methods it stimulates his minds, hardens his nature, and supplies his incompentencies." (Translated by James Legge in The Works of Mencius)"So it is that whenever Heaven invests a person with great responsibilities, it first tries his resolve, exhausts his muscles and bones, starves his body, leaves him destitute, and confounds his every endeavor. In this way his patience and endurance are developed, and his weakness are overcome." (Translated by David Hinton in Mencius) ----- Mencius (Mengzi. Gaozi. Part II)
“人最宝贵的是生命。它给予我们只有一次。人的一生应当这样度过：当他回首往事时不因虚度年华而悔恨，也不因碌碌无为而羞耻。这样在他临死的时侯就能够说：‘我已把我整个的生命和全部精力都献给最壮丽的事业——为人类的解放而斗争。’”—— 尼古拉·阿历克塞耶维奇·奥斯特洛夫斯基（《钢铁是怎样炼成的》）
