"Memory is a strange thing, it doesn't work like I thought it did. We are so used to thinking of it as a camera or a tape recorder, but it's not like that at all. It's more like a painter, who adds and subtracts elements according to his own rules."

人生不是赛跑，而是一段每一步都算数的旅程——包括那些跌倒。

"A book is a friend that never judges you."

What can be said at all can be said clearly; and whereof one cannot speak thereof one must be silent.
