The only way to escape the system is to play with it, to turn its own logic against itself.

理解自己就是理解世界。

Concerning the gods, I cannot know either that they exist or that they do not exist, nor what form they might have, for there is much to prevent one's knowing: the obscurity of the subject and the shortness of man's life.

书籍不仅仅是物品；它们是经历，它们改变我们。

做官的人应为肩负天下重任而养身，而不是为私家小利惜身。省却嗜好欲念，减除烦恼忧虑，戒除愤怒，节制饮食，这就是养身。计较得失利益，规避辛劳哀怨，营造住宅房舍，以妻子儿女为重，这就是惜身。养生的人，不妄为而大方；惜身的人，腥膻而琐碎。

I don’t like to do easy things. I like to be challenged.
