無論所有的困境、氣餒及不可能，保有永恆、堅持及持續的特質：是這些，在諸事裡，分別強者與弱者。“Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.”

“Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.” – Thomas Carlyle, Writer
