山戰水戰 through hell and high water
山 (mountain) 戰 (war) 水 (water) 戰 (war)
So, you've been through it all.
And you've come out on top.
“It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves."
- Edmund Hillary

無限追求 infinite pursuits ∞
春蛙秋蟬 media chatter
東問西答 non sequitur
山戰水戰 through hell and high water
韜光養晦 humility
背水之陣 fight with back against the wall (of water)
和而不同 be harmonious yet true to oneself
七*转八起 get up and try for the 8th time
誇大妄想 delusions of grandeur
凸鼻凹目 well-defined features
錦上添花 icing on the cake
亢龍有悔 tough stay at the top
