唯其尊重自己的人，才更勇于缩小自己。

人间无趣，有幸有你。一个人怕孤单，两个人怕辜负。一辈子很长，恰到好处的喜欢和偏爱最舒服。

林徽因

True innovation often comes from listening to those on the factory floor.

实际情况中，人民的意愿指的不过是人民中人数最多或发言最积极那部分人的意愿；多数人，或那些成功地控制主流发言权的人可以利用他们的“民主权利”去压迫他们以外的任何人。这种“多数人的暴政”和任何其他滥用权力的行为一样，都需要采取措施来防止这种情况发生。因此，即使在一个拥有政府时时刻刻能被民众审查的民主社会中，政府权力的限制依然未失去其重要性。

The will of the people, moreover, practically means the will of the most numerous or the most active part of the people; the majority, or those who succeed in making themselves accepted as the majority; the people, consequently may desire to oppress a part of their number; and precautions are as much needed against this as against any other abuse of power. The limitation, therefore, of the power of government over individuals loses none of its importance when the holders of power are regularly accountable to the community, that is, to the strongest party therein

约翰·穆勒

鸟啼花落，欣然有会于心。遣小奴，挈瘿樽，酤白酒，釂一梨花瓷盏；急取诗卷，快读一过以咽之，萧然不知其在尘埃间也。

陈继儒

We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print.

我们是不出现在报纸上的人。我们生活在印刷品边缘的空白处。

玛格丽特·阿特伍德

去尽风波存止水，世间何事不能平。

心如止水，世间万事皆可平。

邵雍

酒入豪肠，七分酿成了月光，剩余三分啸成了剑气，绣口一吐就是半个盛唐。

余光中

城市是一本打开的书，每个人都在书写自己的章节。
