9.Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. 从现在开始20年之后，更让你失望的不是你做过的事情，而是你没有做过的事情。所以，抛开帆脚索吧，从安全港驶离。在你的航行中去捕捉信风，去探索，去梦想，去发现！（disappointed，形容词，失望的；throw off，抛开、甩开、扔掉；bowline，名词，帆脚索；harbor，名词，港口；trade wind，信风。）
