塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《自助论》· Self-Help · 领导
At Paris a new world of art opened before him, exciting his wonder and stimulating his emulation. He worked diligently in many studios, drawing, copying, and painting pictures. After a time, he resolved, if possible, to visit Rome, and set out on his journey; but he only succeeded in getting as far as Florence, and again returned to Paris. A second attempt which he made to reach Rome was even less successful; for this time he only got as far as Lyons. He was, nevertheless, careful to take advantage of all opportunities for improvement which came in his way, and continued as sedulous as before in studying and working.

白话
到了巴黎，艺术的新世界在他眼前展开，让他惊叹，也激起他追赶的劲头。他在许多画室里勤勉工作，画素描、临摹、作画。过了一阵，他下决心要去罗马，便动身出发，可只走到佛罗伦萨就折回了巴黎。第二次尝试更不顺利，只到里昂就止步。尽管如此，他仍留心抓住身边一切能长进的机会，照旧刻苦学习和工作。这里的关键是：目标一时够不着，不等于白费；把眼前能用的资源用足，功夫就不会断。
