Literature is a memory, a look back at the past.
他把他的刀剑当作他的上帝。当他的刀剑胜利的时候他自己却失败了。
I'm not a gangster, I'm not a thug, I'm just a regular guy who's had some success.
I like the stars. It's the illusion of permanence, I think. I mean, they're always flaring up and caving in and going out. But from here, I can pretend...I can pretend that things last. I can pretend that lives last longer than moments. Gods come, and gods go. Mortals flicker and flash and fade. Worlds don't last; and stars and galaxies are transient, fleeting things that twinkle like fireflies and vanish into cold and dust. But I can pretend.
