该句使用了对偶修辞，结构工整，通过木与玉的意象深刻阐述了完美主义的不可行。
Even a foot of wood must have joints, and an inch of jade must have flaws.
Life is like a deep, dreamless sleep. Before closing our eyes, the radiant flowers of youth are in full bloom; upon opening them again, these beautiful flowers have already withered and fallen. It seems as if only a moment has passed, yet when we look back, the glorious years have drifted far away, happiness and joy have vanished without a trace, erasing their brilliant footprints. Thus, the notes that once intoxicated the soul come to an abrupt halt, and a song of self-pitying sorrow fills the spiritual wasteland of decadence and loneliness.
As people grow older and more mature, having gone through many experiences, they become more vulnerable and sensitive. Often, when unhappy, they do not share their feelings with family or friends, turning all joys and sorrows, partings and reunions into a faint melancholy at their fingertips, blooming unpleasantly in every season.
If you want to attain something, do not merely hope for it; if you want results, do not wait to set out; if you want perfection, do not merely patch things up. Life is short and cannot afford to wait.
What is a myth? When a man expresses his love and pours out his heart to you. What is a legend? When a man makes promises and vows to you. What is a dream? Being immersed in the sweetness of love and unable to pull oneself out. What is self-deception? When the outcome is obvious, yet one still refuses to believe it, hypnotizing oneself!
Most people cannot be heroes, so they can only fantasize about it in the cinema.
Do not exhaust all possibilities in any matter. If you exhaust everything, your affinity and fate will inevitably run out early.
尺之木必有节目，寸之玉必有瑕疵。
人生好似一场酣睡的梦。闭眼前，绚烂的青春花朵绽放正盛；再睁眼，这枝美丽花儿却已破败凋零。仿佛只是弹指一挥间，蓦然回首，美妙华年业已飘远，幸福快乐亦荡然无存，抹去了绮丽的踪影。于是，曾醉人心脾的音符戛然而止，一首顾影自怜的哀戚之歌，填满颓废落寞的精神荒原。
人长大了，成熟了，历经了许多事，却变得易伤、敏感。很多时候，不开心，却不同家人说、不与朋友提，将所有的喜怒哀乐、悲欢离合，全化为指尖一抹淡淡的忧郁，极不喜人地开放在每一个季节里。
想要得到，就别只是期望；想要结果，就别等待出发；想要完美，就别只是修补。人生短暂，经不起等待。
什么叫神话？男人向你表达爱意倾诉衷肠；什么叫传说？男人对你许下承诺海誓山盟；什么叫梦境？沉浸爱情甜美之中难以自拔；什么叫自欺？结果明显却仍不信自我催眠！
大多数人当不了英雄，所以只能去电影院里幻想一下。
凡事不可做尽，凡事做尽，缘分必定早尽。
