The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.

I prefer to count the stars rather than to laugh at them.

成功的关键是不断推动自己。

We are all patchworks of our experiences, memories, and the stories we tell ourselves.
