The prizes of life are at the end of each journey, not near the beginning; and it is not given to me to know how many steps are necessary in order to reach my goal. Failure I may still encounter at the thousandth step, yet success hides behind the next bend in the road. Never will I know how close it lies unless I turn the corner.
生命的獎賞遠在旅途終點，而非起點附近。我不知道要走多少步才能達到目標。踏上第一千步的時候，仍然可能遭到失敗。但成功就藏在拐角後面，除非拐了彎，我永遠不知道還有多遠。
