It is better to give than to take.

It is better to hope than to despair.

It is better to live well than to live long.

It is better to wear out than to rust out.

It is better to be clothed in rags

than to be clothed with shame.

It is better to teach a man

how to fish than to give him fish.

索取不如贡献，

绝望不如希望，

活得长不如活得好，

与其锈掉不如用掉，

今天有只蛋不如明天有只鸡，

宁可穿着破烂也不身披耻辱，

授人以鱼不如授人以渔。
