Please build your mental and behavioral boundaries well and don’t let others interfere with your life. It is not quibbling but going your own way and adopting non-interference attitude in life.

—You are the master of your life

建立好心理和行为边界,不要让别人随意介入你的生活。这不是斤斤计较,而是便于各行其道,互不干扰。

——你是自己的主人

When Chinese people claim the kids are clever, firstly, they mean that the kids are precocious, in other words, they are cute. However, the cute kids will not go far because getting cute implies an act of dishonesty; Secondly, the kids have good yet simple memory, they are good at memorizing ancient Tang poems and circumference ratio. The significance of such simple memory work has been emphasized too much by the parents while in fact they seldom “discover” the real brilliant kids.

—Wang Fuzhong, Chinese economist

中国人说孩子聪明,一是早熟,也就是会抖机灵。抖机灵的孩子未必有出息,因为不诚实。二是简单的记忆力,如背唐诗、圆周率等。这是体力劳动,没意义。真正聪明的孩子,家长们一般都发现不了。

——经济学家王福重

What really counts in life amounts to three points, that is, a peaceful life,be grateful, and with a faithful spouse.

—That is what we have learnt in primary school. Namely, “Fine, thank you, and you?” in simple English.

人这一辈子,最重要的三点其实是:岁月静好,懂得感恩,与你相随。

——其实我们在小学就学过,按照国际说法就是:fine,thank you,and you.

Simple things may have three different outcomes: some are neglected by people due to its triviality; some are made complicated by people and eventually discarded;still others will be permanent and enduring due to its simplicity.

—The simplest, the long lasting

简单的东西,有三个结局:一是因简单而忽略不计;二是因简单而故意搞的很复杂,最后被废掉;三是因简单而变得容易坚持。

——最持久的,就是最简单的
