要理解行为，就要寻找其中的效用。

In the state of nature, indeed, all men are born equal, but they cannot continue in this equality. Society makes them lose it, and they recover it only by the protection of the laws.

在自然状态下，所有人确实生而平等，但他们不能保持这种平等。社会使他们失去了这种平等，他们只有通过法律的保护才能重新获得它。

孟德斯鸠

单有一只燕子，还算不了夏天。

创新是成功的关键。

"Innovation is the key to success."

史蒂夫·鲍尔默

任何成功，勤奋和努力是必要条件，如果没有一个最低6×12 小时的勤奋和努力，为什么你会成功呢？如果你想干5×8 小时就成功，别人比你工作时间长 50%，聪明程度一样，人家比你一倍努力，这就应了中国的古话：天道酬勤。

全国人才集中到中央，这不是件好事。首先是地方无才，不仅地方行政要减低效率，而地方风俗文化，也不易上进。地方垮台了，中央哪能单独存在。所以中央集权不是件好事，而中央集才也不是件好事。

钱穆

曾经的失败只能让我们更强大。

1It’s funny. I think a lot of people, a lot of writers, try to take shortcuts in their assignments and just regurgitate what somebody else may have written, you know, instead of truly saying what’s going on,. Kobe says. .I’m no different than anybody. Basketball to me, it’s a game that I want to try to be the best at, try to work at as much as possible. But I understand it’s a game. But I’m extremely outgoing. People say, ‘He’s quiet’ and all that stuff. That’s crazy. They obviously don’t know me. So, I mean, people that know me and people that seen me interact, stuff like that, I’m completely opposite of what they read. And a lot of people actually tell me that. They’ll say, ‘Man, you’re nothing like I thought you were.’

这太有意思了。我想很多人，很多作家，老是想尽办法在他们的写作任务中反复其他人可能已经写过的东西，而不是真实记录正在发生的一些事情。科比说，我跟其他人没什么差别。篮球对于我来说，是一场我要尽可能努力做到最好的比赛。而我理解那是一场比赛。我是很外向的。人们说我很寡言，那简直胡说。他们显然就不了解我嘛。因此，那些了解我，跟我交流的人知道我跟那些报道中的完全不一样。事实上很多人也会这样跟我说,‘你跟我想象中的完全不同。
