“Every failure, obstacle or hardship is an opportunity in disguise. Success in many cases is failure turned inside out. The greatest pollution problem we face today is negativity. Eliminate the negative attitude and believe you can do anything. Replace ‘if I can, I hope, maybe’ with ‘I can, I will, I must.'”
「每一個失敗、障礙及困境,都是一個潛在的機會,成功在很多時候是失敗的裡外翻轉。我們今天最大的污染源是負面思維,剔除負面態度並相信你可以做任何事,把『如果我可以、我希望、或許』替換為『我可以、我將要、我必須』。」– 玫琳凱‧艾施 (化妝品先驅)

「如果有人問我哪一個建議對人們最有用,那就是:當麻煩出現時,視它為人生不可避免的一部分,把頭高高抬起,直視麻煩然後說:『我比你巨大,你無法擊倒我。』」– 安‧蘭德斯 (專欄作家)
