和你一同笑过的人，你可能把他忘掉，但是和你一同哭过的人，你却永远不忘。
You may forget the one with whom you have laughed, but never the one with whom you have wept.
夫仁者，己欲立而立人，己欲达而达人。
Now the man of perfect virtue, wishing to be established himself, seeks also to establish others; wishing to be enlarged himself, he seeks also to enlarge others.
