Years later, after winning the Nobel Prize in Physics and becoming a world–renowned physicist, I was interviewed by a Chinese
reporter.
He asked me what had sustained me along
the way.
I thought for a moment and smiled brightly:
“Because every time I faced a setback, I
would tell myself—”
“Rose, never look back.”
No matter what hardship, what setback.
As long as it doesn’t crush me.
Then, stride forward.
