约翰·亚当斯

1、We have too many high sounding words, and too few actions that correspond with them.我们的豪言壮语太多，而相应的行动太少。

2、All men profess honesty as long as they can. To believe all men honest would be folly. To believe none so is something worse.所有的人都会宣称自己总是诚实的。相信所有的人都诚实那是愚蠢的。而相信谁都不诚实则是更糟的事情。

3、Old minds are like old horses; you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.老脑筋就像老马，要想保持工作状态就得常遛遛。

4、No man who ever held the office of president would congratulate a friend on obtaining it.没有一个拥有过总统办公室的人会去祝贺一个正在谋求总统办公室的朋友。
