课外的接触十分频繁。我们常常在未名湖上划船，在水中央的岛边石舫上开种种的讨论会，或是作个别谈话。这种个别谈话就更深入了!有个人的择业与择婚问题等等!这时我眼前忽然涌现出好几对美满的夫妻，如郑林庄和吴瑞梧，林耀华和饶毓苏，等等。有的是我以大媒的身份去参加他们的完婚仪式，有的是由我出面宴请双方的家长，为他们撮合。说起来是半个世纪以前的事了。他们中有过半数的人已先我而进入另一个世界，写到这里，我心里有说不出的一种滋味!

历史的道路，不是平坦的，有时走到艰难的境界。这是全靠雄伟的精神才能够冲过去的。

一条浩浩荡荡的长江大河，有时候到很宽阔的境界，平原无际，一泻万里。有时候流到很逼狭的境界，两岸从山迭岭，绝壁断崖，江河流于期间，回环曲折，及其险峻。民族生命的进展，其经历亦复如是。

人类在历史上得生活正如旅行一样。旅途上得征人所经过的地方，有时是平坦平原，有时是崎岖险路。志于旅途的人，走到平坦的地方，因是高高兴兴的向前走，走到崎岖的境界，愈是奇趣横生，觉得在此奇绝壮绝的境界，越是感到一种冒险的美趣。

在利兹(Leeds)住的老人有的非常可怜。如钱不多的话，房子又小又脏，又不能买好吃的东西吃，好看的衣服穿，结果一点自尊心也没有了。这真是一幅悲惨的景象。即使钱够的话，还有许多别的问题，最大的问题是寂寞。我们看到的人大部分是独身住的。老伴大概已经不在了，孩子要么搬到很远的地方去了，要么懒得去看望年老的父母。

每逢农历初一至初五，十五至三十，天体引潮力特别强，易形成大潮；农历八月十八日的大潮尤为壮观。而杭州湾喇叭口的地形特殊，梅湾水域广阔，但河口狭窄，加之河床泥沙阻挡，易使潮流能量集中，江潮迅速猛涨，流速加快，涌潮现象频频发生。钱江涌潮，一年四季，周而复始。全年共有120天的“观潮日”。每天有日、夜两潮，尤以秋潮为佳。每当大潮来时，开始远处呈现一条白线，声如闷雷。数分钟之后，白线向前推移；继而巨浪汹涌澎湃，如万马奔腾，潮声震天动地，真有翻江倒海之势，最高潮差达8.93米。钱塘江涌潮举世无双，其奇、其高可与亚马逊河媲美，被誉为“世界第八大奇观”。
