I don't want to be a tree; I want to be its meaning.

The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.

我写作是为了记住，不让过去溜走。

欣赏工作的最好方法是想象自己没有工作。
