The stories we tell ourselves are just as important as the stories told about us.

The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.

Words are the only homeland we have.

The hottest love has the coldest end.

【译文】人活一辈子，就像花草树木繁荣，一春一秋，非常短暂。年少时不知道勤学苦读，弹指间就会变成白发老翁。月亮过了十五后光明就会越来越少，人到中年还一事无成，也就不会有大的作为了。

如果你看到一个巨大的变革性机会，不要疑虑其他人为什么没有采取行动。你可能看到了他人没有看到的东西。问题越严峻，竞争就越有限，对问题解决者的回报就越大。

The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success.

  艺术家的任务始终是加深神秘感。
