If a man must boast of
anything as his own, he must boast of his misery and sin, for there is nothing else but
this that is his own property. William Law 如果一個人要誇口他所有的,那他就必須誇口他的悲慘及罪惡,因為他僅有的財產就是這兩者。 |
No man is weaker than a proud man. For a proud
man rests on nothing. Richard Sibbes 再沒有比驕傲的人軟弱的了。因為驕傲的人無以為恃。 |
