Man's dearest possession is life.It is given to him but once,and he must live it so as to feel no torturing regrets for wasted years,never know the burning shame of a mean and petty past; so live that,dying,he might say:all my life ,all my strength were given to the finest cause in all the world-the fight for the Liberation of Mankind.
——By Ostrovsky [Russia]
人最宝贵的东西是生命.生命对每个人来讲只有一次.一个人的生命应该这样度过：当他回首往事时,不会因虚度年华而悔恨,也不会因碌碌无为而羞耻.在临死的时候,他能够说：我的整个生命和全部精力,都已献给了世界上最壮丽的事业——为人类的解放事业而斗争.
——〔俄〕奥斯特洛夫斯基
