1. My life has a limit, but knowledge has no limit. (Zhuangzi, The Butcher Ding)
2. To love is to love, but to accept rejection? These few words change their meaning. Your silent response and my avoidance—what are we doing? A direct answer wouldn't hurt more than this silence. Don't believe that his silence is better than a promise he can't keep; that only makes the heart burn more intensely. If he can't give it, do you still want it?
3. Heaven made me with purpose, and gold scattered will return. (Li Bai, Bring in the Wine)

5. You never know who might say goodbye casually and then never be seen again.
6. Tears and sweat have similar chemical compositions, but the former only wins sympathy, while the latter wins success.
7. Life is like an actor performing on stage. The wise use strategy to plan their performance, making it brilliant and surprising.
8. Emotions are something we neither bring at birth nor take at death.
9. Too much sweet talk makes one sentimental; too much philosophy makes one numb; too much reality makes one cynical. Simplicity has become such a luxury.
10. We can bravely face the fact that the person we love does not love us back, but no one is strong enough to face the departure of someone who has loved us for a very long time.
11. Youth is like wine, in full bloom. All beautiful things will be shared, all mistakes will be forgiven, and all that is immature can wait patiently.
12. Conversing with great scholars, without encountering the unlearned. (Liu Yuxi, Record of My Humble Dwelling)
13. I am grateful to live in such a wonderful world, meeting all kinds of interesting people and hearing the loves and hates of friends with diverse personalities; life is filled with fascinating stories.
14. Love is just a turn away; it looks close, yet remains unreachable.
15. If a person lacks decorum, why should they live? (The Classic of Poetry)
16. If one day the sun no longer rises, is there any reason for a sunflower to exist? If one day you leave, is there any reason for me to live?
17. You should move forward; what is the use of always looking back?
18. Love is not longing, not self-inflicted suffering, and not doing many things for the other person in secret. Love is knowing clearly that you want to be with them; love is action, and the satisfaction of seeing a happy smile on their face. Believe that you are better than anyone else in the world at making them happy, and be willing to work for it at any cost. This is the expectation, the responsibility, and the confidence of love. — Hou Wenyong
19. Life and time are the two best teachers. Life doesn't need to be complex; simplicity is enough. We live not just for ourselves, but to live out our true selves. Trekking along the path, resting in the small home we've built, quietly feeling our heartbeat, letting life temper us, and raising our own banner to show our name.
20. Society is brutally realistic, as practical as a bun for a coin.
21. As the saying goes: 'A rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow,' yet another says: 'Being close to the water allows one to catch the moon first.'
22. Whether performing or speaking, as long as there is one listener, continue with all your heart. Even if there is no applause, keep performing, because this is your path to success and the cradle of your achievements. You don't perform for the audience to succeed, but for your own success.
23. Everyone must find the meaning of life. One needs work to gain a sense of time. The less free time one has, the more one understands the value of time and can utilize it more fully.
24. There may be nothing beautiful in this world, except perhaps time, the only beautiful thing we possess. Let us not waste it; who knows what tomorrow brings? Time is eternity; wasting time is wasting eternity.
25. People with self-control are often called indifferent; in reality, those who say so think they are more passionate, but their passion is short-lived due to lack of control.
26. In this world, there are far more unfortunate people than fortunate ones. Walk the path step by step; although reaching the finish line is exciting, most steps are ordinary or even dull. Without these steps, or the perseverance to endure the dullness, you will never reach the final excitement.
