At the end of the day it's not about what you have or even what you've accomplished... it's about who you've lifted up, who you've made better. It's about what you've given back.

宇宙不仅比我们想象的更奇怪，而且比我们能够想象的更奇怪。

The best stories are those that remind us that the world is alive.

The total amount of suffering per year in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation. During the minute that it takes me to compose this sentence, thousands of animals are being eaten alive, many others are running for their lives, whimpering with fear, others are slowly being devoured from within by rasping parasites, thousands of all kinds are dying of starvation, thirst, and disease.

世界是残酷的，我的书反映了这一点。

一本好书是一个永远不会让你失望的朋友。
