人生就像一首歌，有高潮也有低谷。

作家必须成为无声者的声音。

The idea that we will make a society where literally everybody is graded, the good at the top, bad at the bottom, exactly done as it should be, is impossible. There are simply too many random factors: accidents, accidents of birth, accidents of things dropping on people's heads, illnesses, etc. We will never get to grade them, never get to grade people as they should.

数学是上帝用来书写宇宙的语言。

A writer must be willing to be misunderstood.

We must embrace new technologies and ideas, or risk being left behind in the rapidly changing energy landscape.

变化是宇宙中唯一不变的东西。
