禁止持有武器的法律。只会解除那些本来就不打算或没有决心要犯罪的人的武装……这样的法律只会让受害者变得更糟,让行凶者更强;它们相当于鼓励而不是阻止凶杀,因为一个没有武装的人更可能被一个武装的人袭击。
The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
困苦受辱不值得忧虑,而自取困辱才值得忧虑。荣耀利益不是真正的快乐,忘掉荣耀利益才是真正的快乐。
我喜欢竞争。我喜欢战斗。
"I like to explore the boundaries between the visible and the invisible."
The question is not whether the thing exists, but whether it has any essence which is capable of existence without us.
"The beauty of literature lies in its ability to make the invisible visible, to give voice to the voiceless, and to illuminate the darkest corners of the human soul."
