Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

Writing is the only way I have to explain my own life to myself.

"A life without reflection is a life half-lived, and biography is the mirror."

遵循天道，顺应地理，万物皆得其所。所以，抚慰他就安宁，折腾他就痛苦。尊崇他就可以为将领，贬斥则为俘虏。
