What I want to talk to you about today is the difference between gifts and choices. Cleverness is a gift， kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy -- they're given after all. Choices can be hard. You can seduce yourself with your gifts if you're not careful， and if you do， it'll probably be to the detriment of your choices.
選擇比天賦更重要 今天我想對(duì)你們說的是，天賦和選擇不同。聰明是一種天賦，而善良是一種選擇。天賦得來很容易——畢竟它們與生俱來。而選擇則頗為不易。如果一不小心，你可能被天賦所誘惑，這可能會(huì)損害到你做出的選擇。
Writing is a way of bearing witness.

Happy the man, and happy he alone, he who can call today his own.
We cannot change the past, but we can change our view of it.
