写作是对时间侵蚀的抵抗。

上下级之间若真诚相通，则即使在暗处也相互信任无疑；若真诚不通，则即使亲近也充满怀疑不信。

The idea that we will make a society where literally everybody is graded, the good at the top, bad at the bottom, exactly done as it should be, is impossible. There are simply too many random factors: accidents, accidents of birth, accidents of things dropping on people's heads, illnesses, etc. We will never get to grade them, never get to grade people as they should.
