We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. Medicine, law, business, engineering: these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love...these are what we stay alive for.
我们读诗写诗并不是因为它好玩。我们读诗写诗是因为我们是人类的一分子。而人类是充满激情的。没错、医学、法律、商业、工程，这些都是崇高的追求，足以支撑人的一生。但诗歌...美丽、浪漫、爱情...这些才是我们生活的意义。
We have a passion for keeping things simple.
Introspection is the only method by which the mind can be directly observed.
如果人生能像初次见面那样美好，就不会有后来的离别和悲伤。
"Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled 'This could change your life.'"
悲伤不会改变你，海瑟。它揭示了你。
