True Nobility
Ernest Hemingway
In a calm sea every man is a pilot.
But all sunshine without shade, all pleasure without pain, is not life
at all. Take the lot of happiest, it is a tangled yarn. Bereavements
and blessings, one following another, make us sad and blessed by turns.
Even death itself makes life more loving. Men come closet to their true
selves in the sober moments of life, under the shadows of sorrow and
loss.
In the affairs of life or of business, it is not intellect that tells
so much as character, not brains so much as heart, not genius so much
as self-control, patience, and discipline, regulated by judgment.
I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously
within begins to live more simply without. In an age of extravagance and
waste, I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity
are.
To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true

To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true
repentance. There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man.
The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.

今日我酒意未消，
明天不再酩酊大醉；
今日再饮一杯酒，
明天开始新生涯。
