My dad was upset—not the usual stuff that he and Mom worry about, like which college I’m going to, how far away it is from home and how much it’s going to cost. Inste...
词汇的严格意义不在词汇本身，而在词汇的应用。一个单词可能音节嘹亮，字母很多，单就它的学术价值和新奇感来说，可能是令人叹赏的，然而把它放在具体的语境中，也可能毫无意义。 Suit Is Best By William Hazlitt The proper force of words lies not in the words themselves, but in their application. A word may be a fine sounding word, of an unusual length, and very imposing from its learni...

变化是世界上惟一绝对的东西， 是惟一你能相信的事情。 On Changes –Irene Dunlap Change is the only absolute in the world, the only thing that you can depend on. Nothing stays the same.
