我們年少輕狂時曾想著改變世界，改變時代，改變國家 。。。
現在很喜歡王力宏的這首《改變自己》，
就像英國的一個有名的墓碑上寫的：
當我年輕的時候，我的想象力從沒有受到過限製，我夢想改變這個世界。當我成熟以後，我發現我不能改變這個世界，我將目光縮短了些，決定隻改變我的國家。當我進入暮年後，我發現我不能改變我的國家，我的最後願望僅僅是改變一下我的家庭。但是，這也不可能。當我躺在床上，行將就木時，我突然意識到：如果一開始我僅僅去改變我自己，然後作為一個榜樣，我可能改變我的家庭； 在家人的幫助和鼓勵下，我可能為國家做一些事情。然後誰知道呢？我甚至可能改變這個世界。
When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the world.
As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country. But it, too, seemed immovable.
As I grew into my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.
And now, as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realize: If I had only changed myself first, then by example I would have changed my family. From their inspiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country, and who knows, I may have even changed the world.
