出自莎士比亚戏剧的经典名言:
Abandoning time person , time also is able to abandon him.
放弃时间的人,时间也会放弃他。
People can control self destiny, if we are under the control of person , that alternates absent destiny, but is member of ourself.
人们可支配自己的命运,若我们受制於人,那错不在命运,而在我们自己。
Either need to frustrate because of the once , or abandon your it truns out that determination wants to achieve purpose.
不要只因一次挫败,就放弃你原来决心想达到的目的。
No matter how dark long , may eventually in the day arrival.
黑暗无论怎样悠长,白昼总会到来。
