There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real. When the door of happiness closes, another opens; but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one, which has been opened for us. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.

逢到和舊友談話,就不知不覺地把話題轉到舊事上去,這是我的習慣。我在這上面無意識地會感到一種溫暖地慰藉。可是這些舊友一年比一年減少了,本來只是屈指可數的幾個,少去一個是無法彌補的。我每當聽到一個舊友死去的消息,總要惆悵多時。
學校教育給我們的好處不但只是灌輸知識,最大的好處恐怕還在給與我們求友的機會上。這好處我到了離學校以后才知道,這幾年來更確切地體會到,深悔當時毫不自覺,馬馬虎虎地過去了。近來每日早晚在路上見到兩兩三三的攜了手或挽了肩膀走著的青年學生,我總艷羨他們有朋友之樂,暗暗地要在心中替他們祝福。
