A Simple Path

People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Love, anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Do good, anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed, anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good, anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank, anyway.
The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind. Think big, anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build, anyway.
People really need help but may attack if you help them. Help, anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you might get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you’ve got, anyway.

Mother Teresa
Catholic Nun, Missionary
From Her Book “A Simple Path”

「一條簡單的道路,多麼易走,多麼難走」。忽然想起,已有數年沒有跟人分享這篇短文。不在乎看到的人怎麼想我。我只以為,在你懷疑和氣餒的時候,你可以想一想她說的這番話。無論你是誰。

……這並不是愛情,即使到最後發展成為正式註冊的婚姻,然而也還不是愛情,這不過是中國人俗諺中的「少年夫妻老來伴」,他填她空檔,她填他空檔,雙方的要求就是那麼一點點,為這一點點基本的慾望犧牲光與熱,實在不是我這種自私自大的人可以了解。

亦舒。《自白書》P.6

“全世界都在看我们什么时候散,而我偏偏迷了他十多年。其实更真挚更长久的相恋,到最后还是要分开,佛经说任何有生命的东西都会死亡,任何漂亮的东西都会成为过去,大家如果要看这一天,迟早会出现,但不知在什么时候。我们就算相爱再深,其中一个都会先走一步,大家何必急着看呢?”

刘嘉玲。出處不名。

也許是已經不夠莽撞勇猛,但又未晉於特權階級,在人頭湧湧之時一旦不夠聰明,就敗下陣來在後面滿口沙塵。

鄧小樺。粉絲的辛酸
