However menial your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun（避开） it and call it hard names.

It is not so bad as you thought. It might look poorest when you are richest.

The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.

Love your life even poor as it is.

You may have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poor-house.

The snow melts before its door as early in the spring.

A quiet mind may live contentedly（满足地） there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.

They are great simply because they receive life without misgiving.
