To defend the last and greatest fortress of freedom, we must give our all.
One should not be arrogant, but one must possess integrity.
When we gaze upon it again with gentle eyes, we finally understand the vicissitudes and longings of the soul after years of being washed by time. Only when we gently brush away the dust and smooth its textures with loving hands do we realize: only when the soul steps out of the swamp and toward the sunlight can the seeds of hope sprout and grow vigorously in the heart...
Everyone must do something meaningful for themselves. Sometimes it requires long-term dedication, and other times it requires intense effort. Opportunities cannot be chosen; if you miss them through laziness, the past will remain in the past. When opportunities arise in youth, one should strive with all their might.
Life is like a cup of tea—whether strong or light, why struggle? Whether hurried or slow, so be it. Whether warm or cold, a smile is enough. Life is painful because we care too much, and hurtful because we doubt. We find joy in letting go and happiness in looking at things lightly. We are all passing travelers in this world; many things are beyond our control, so let everything be as it may.
惆怅玉箫催别意，蕙些兰骚，未是伤心事。
Life is like climbing: keep your head down when ascending and lift it up when descending. No life is perfectly smooth; there are triumphs and setbacks. When prospering, do not be arrogant or forget the hardships of the past; learn to cherish and be humble. When facing setbacks, maintain an active and enterprising mindset. Do not be boastful in success, nor despondent in failure; do not be swayed by external circumstances.
Life is like a clock; it only gains value when it strikes the time accurately.
