作者:Henry Ford 亨利·福特
中文:任何停止學習的人,無論二十歲還是八十歲,都已經老去。堅持學習的人永保年輕,人生最重要的事,是保持思維的年輕。
葡文(歐葡):Quem deixa de aprender envelhece, seja aos vinte ou aos oitenta anos. Quem continua a aprender mantém-se jovem. A maior coisa na vida é manter a mente jovem.

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

中文:活著,要彷彿明日就會離世;學習,要彷彿可以永生。
葡文(歐葡):Vive como se fosses morrer amanhã. Aprende como se fosses viver para sempre.

核心啟示
三句一脈相承,講終身學習:
1. 年齡不在歲數,而在好奇心與學習的慾望(亨利福特)
2. 生命要有活在當下的緊迫感,同時以長遠之心持續求知(甘地/古諺)
3. 知識是最穩健的資產,金錢會虧損,但學到的東西永遠屬於自己(富蘭克林)
