There is a kind of bird that can never be closed, for its feathers are shining bright.

叶慈

朋友都说自己是真诚的，其实，敌人才是真诚的。所以，我们应该把敌人的抨击、指责作为苦口良药，以此更多地了解自己。患难之交真的那么稀有吗？恰恰相反，我们一旦和某人交上了朋友，他就开始患难了，就向我们借钱了。

叔本华

The space between buildings is as important as the buildings themselves.

建筑之间的空间与建筑本身同样重要。

实际情况中，人民的意愿指的不过是人民中人数最多或发言最积极那部分人的意愿；多数人，或那些成功地控制主流发言权的人可以利用他们的“民主权利”去压迫他们以外的任何人。这种“多数人的暴政”和任何其他滥用权力的行为一样，都需要采取措施来防止这种情况发生。因此，即使在一个拥有政府时时刻刻能被民众审查的民主社会中，政府权力的限制依然未失去其重要性。

The will of the people, moreover, practically means the will of the most numerous or the most active part of the people; the majority, or those who succeed in making themselves accepted as the majority; the people, consequently may desire to oppress a part of their number; and precautions are as much needed against this as against any other abuse of power. The limitation, therefore, of the power of government over individuals loses none of its importance when the holders of power are regularly accountable to the community, that is, to the strongest party therein

Collaboration, not competition, will solve the world’s biggest environmental challenges.

合作而非竞争，才能解决世界最大的环境挑战。

约翰·曼宁

但是，这些朝代几乎都没有留下任何印迹。像中国任何一个城市一样，这里的建筑的发展步伐掩埋了历史的遗迹。它们的目的仅仅是容纳人口，容纳天天在这里爬坡上坎、搏击车流、干活糊口、买进卖出的二十多万人。
