If you would be known, and not know, vegetate in a village; if you would know, and not be known, live in a city.

If you would be known, and not know, vegetate in a village; if you would know, and not be known, live in a city.

如果你想让别人知道你，而不让别人知道你，那就在村子里种上植物;如果你想知道，却不被人知道，那就住在城市里吧。

-- Charles Caleb Colton 英国作家科尔顿
