The novel is the most ambitious attempt to capture the human condition.
The best time to negotiate your salary for a new job is the moment AFTER they say they want you, and not before. Then it becomes a game of chicken for each side to name an amount first, but it is to your advantage to get them to give a number before you do.
你压制什么,它就会变得更强,你抗拒什么,它就会继续存在。
