文／蔣經國（1910~1988）

最猛的風浪，汩沒不了一個有信心的人；

最大的障礙，阻擋不了一個有勇氣的人；

最逆的環境，困擾不了一個有抱負的人；

最難的任務，壓抑不了一個有擔當的人；

最苦的遭遇，折磨不了一個有志氣的人；

最狠的敵人，打敗不了一個有決心的人。

Auspicious Remarks

Chiang Ching-kuo (1910 - 1988)

English translation: Venerable Zhi Yue

Not even the most ferocious waves can

swallow a man of faith.

Not even the most trying obstacles can

stop a man of courage.

Not even the most adverse environments can

disturb a man of aspiration.

Not even the most difficult tasks can

constrain a man of responsibility.

Not even the most bitter experiences can

torment a man of ambition.

Not even the most ruthless enemies can

defeat a man of determination..

── from Chiang Ching-kuo Xiansheng Yanlun Zhushu Huibian
