1．Road is stepped out，history is written.Every step of man is writing his own history.
路是脚踏出来的，历史是人写出来的。人类的每一步都在书写自己的历史。
2．Few will have the greatness to bend history itself；but each of us can work to change a small portion of events，and in the total，of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.
很少有人能够改变历史本身，但我们每个人都能努力改变一小部分事件，而且总的来说，所有这些行为都将被书写成这一代人的历史。
3．History，showing us the life of nations，has nothing to record save wars and revolutions：the peaceful years appear only as brief pauses or interludes，scattered here and there.—Schopenhauer
历史告诉我们一些国家的生活，它除了记载战争和革命之外别无其他。和平年代仅是出现在各地的短暂间歇。 ——叔本华
4．The value of culture is its effect on character.It avails nothing unless it ennobles and strengthens that.Its use is for life.Its aim is not beauty but goodness. —Maugham
文化的价值在于它对人类品性的影响。它一无是处，除非文化能使品性变为高尚、有力。文化的作用在于裨益人生，它的目标不是美，而是善。 ——毛姆
5．The triumph of culture is to overpower nationality. —Emerson
文化的胜利在于它超越了国籍。 ——爱默生
