伊莉莎白二世（Queen Elizabeth）如是說

我們都需要在行動與反思之間取得平衡
We all need to get the balance right between action and reflection
紛擾如此多
With so many distractions
很容易忘記暫停腳步 評估狀況
it is easy to forget to pause and take stock
儘管只是沉思 禱告 甚至寫日記
be it though contemplation, prayer or even keeping a diary
許多人已經發現安靜的個人反思有驚喜的回報
Many have found the practice of quiet personal reflection surprisingly rewarding
甚至為他們的生活發現更多靈性的深度
even discovering greater spiritual depth to their lives
