语言不是一种文化产物,不像我们学习报时或了解联邦政府运作那样。相反,它是我们大脑生物构成的一个独特部分。

Complexity is easy; simplicity is hard.
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
Words were not given to man in order to conceal his thoughts.
One must be a god to be able to tell successes from failures without making a mistake.
悔恨自己的错误,而且力求不再重蹈覆辙,这才是真正的悔悟。
多样性是我们的力量,但包容是我们的选择。
