凡所有相，皆是虛妄；若見諸相非相，即見如來。
──《金剛經》
All that has characteristics is false and ephemeral.
If you see all characteristics to be non-characteristics,
then you see the Tathāgata.

《危險心靈》摘錄
我要明白的告訴每一個人，是我們的平庸、冷漠、虛偽、貪婪讓生命變成了一連串失去純真的過程。是我們在這個過程中親手種下死亡的種子，讓腐敗在自己的內在萌芽，茁壯。是我們自己澆水灌溉，眼睜睜地看著我們在腐敗中失去自己，在腐敗中失去一切。
《危險心靈》摘錄(電視劇台詞)
我小時候，好想背著大大的書包上學。我以為我會在學校學習思考、體會、尊重、分享， 好讓我更懂得享受生命所賦予我的一切， 更懂得熱愛這個世界。直到我開始上學之後，我才明白我想錯了。他們說，教育就是競技場， 而讀書不過是一場又一場的爭奪戰。為了保持領先，我們放棄思考、體會、尊重、分享，開始學習平庸、冷漠、虛偽、貪婪，我們彼此責怪、互相憎恨、鬥爭殺戮，難道這就是我們的教育？這就是我們的生活？

The important thing in science is not so much to obtain new facts as to discover new ways of thinking about them.
E. Chargaff
Science is wonderfully equipped to answer the question "How?" but it gets terribly confused when you ask the question "Why?"
A. Einstein
The formulation of a problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill.
A. Einstein
Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.
A. Einstein
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
R. P. Feynman
Of all its many values, the greatest must be the freedom to doubt.
R. P. Feynman
To those who do not know mathematics it is difficult to get across a real feeling as to the beauty, the deepest beauty, of nature.
J. Oppenheimer
The greatest progressive minds of embryology have not looked for hypothesis; they have looked at embryos.
E. Shrödinger
最重要的，不是發現前人所未見；而是在人人所見的現象裡，想到前人不曾想到的。
S. T. Yau 丘成桐
我對數學的興趣，源於人類智慧足以參悟自然的欣喜。
S. T. Yau 丘成桐
一個數學難題的重要性在於由它所引出的理論是否豐富，單是一個漂亮的證明並不是數學的真諦。
