我該做的，或許是回歸最原本的面貌。
只有接受最初，而不是一昧的壓抑與改變，才能找到自我。

Consider that men will do the same things nevertheless,even though thou shouldst burst.

想想吧，儘管你很惱火，但人們依舊會做那些事情。
Pg201[4]
---《沉思錄-我與神的對話》

看那星星的軌跡，彷彿你也在與它們同行，也要時時思考元素是如何互相轉化的；因為這種認識能掃除我們在塵世中沾染的髒東西。

---《沉思錄-我與自己的對話》 ​​

Everything material soon disappers in the substance of the whole;
and everything formal(causal) is very soon taken back into the universal reason;
and the memory of everything is very soon overwhelmed in time.
任何物質都會很快消失在宇宙的實體中；
任何因果都會很快回歸於宇宙的理性中；
而任何記憶都會很快被時間吞沒。

--《沉思錄-我與自己的對話》

In discourse thou must attend to what is said,and in every movement thou must observe what is doing.
And in the one thou shouldst see immediately to what end it refers,
but in the other watch carefully what is the thing signified.
談話時必須傾聽所說的話，
行動時必須注意所做的事。
行動中要認真觀察行為會達到怎樣的結果；
談話中要用心把握所說話的含意。

「恍惚的面對世界，筆直的面對自己」
---王菲

佛香三界藕花風，心定一池大悲水

Through not observing what is in the mind of another a man has seldom been seen to be unhappy;but those who do not observe the movements of their own minds must necessity be unhappy.
無法洞察別人的靈魂，這也許沒有什麼不對；而不小心自己內心的動機，則注定倒楣。
