貧家淨掃地，貧女淨梳頭，景花雖不豔麗，氣度自是風雅。士君子一當窮愁寥落，奈何輒自廢弛哉。

天長地久。天地所以能長且久者，以其不自生， 故能長生。是以聖人後其身而身先；外其身而身存。非以其無私邪，故能成其私。

王弼本·七章

Coca-Cola and Gillette are two of the best companies in the world and we expect their earnings to grow at hefty rates in the years ahead. Over time, also, the value of our holdings in these stocks should grow in rough proportion. Last year, however, the valuations of these two companies rose far faster than their earnings. In effect, we got a double-dip benefit, delivered partly by the excellent earnings growth and even more so by the market's reappraisal of these stocks. We believe this reappraisal was warranted. But it can't recur annually: We'll have to settle for a single dip in the future.

卷200·高宗天皇大聖大弘孝皇帝上之下顯慶三年（戊午，公元六五八年）·第6则

Mr. Scott was promoted to be the general superintendent of the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1856, taking Mr. Lombaert's place; and he took me, then in my twenty-third year, with him to Altoona. This breaking-up of associations in Pittsburgh was a sore trial, but nothing could be allowed to interfere for a moment with my business career. My mother was satisfied upon this point, great as the strain was upon her. Besides, "follow my leader" was due to so true a friend as Mr. Scott had been.
