The first step in liquidating a people is to erase its memory. Destroy its books, its culture, its history. Then have somebody write new books, manufacture a new culture, invent a new history. Before long the nation will begin to forget what it is and what it was.
消灭一个民族的第一步是抹去它的记忆。摧毁它的书籍，它的文化，它的历史。然后让某人写新书，制造新文化，发明新历史。不久之后，这个民族就会开始忘记它是什么以及它曾经是什么。
Time is a slippery thing: lose hold of it once, and its string might sail out of your hands forever.
时间是个滑溜溜的东西：一旦失去控制，它的线索可能会永远从你手中溜走。
The best way to predict the future is to create it.
道自安静之中得来，德于谦让之中养成，福在清俭之中积累，命于和畅之中保全。
The only way to survive is to keep moving forward.
记忆是滑溜的东西，总是在不断变化和重塑。
