Those who do not have power over the story that dominates their lives, the power to retell it, rethink it, deconstruct it, joke about it, and change it as they change, truly are powerless, because they cannot think new thoughts.
那些无法掌控主导他们生活的故事的人，无法重述、重新思考、解构、嘲笑并随着变化而改变它的人，真正是无力的，因为他们无法思考新的思想。
释义：处理事情时，往往因为急躁冒进而导致失败；思考问题时，常常由于从容不迫才能有所收获。做事不可急于求成，唯有冷静沉稳、深思熟虑，才能有效解决问题、达成目标 。
The chess-board is the world; the pieces are the phenomena of the universe; the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature.
