哲学史不像科学史那样，仅仅被视为发现和错误的年代记录。它是人类精神在努力理解自身及其与宇宙关系的历史。
The history of philosophy is not, like the history of the sciences, to be considered as a mere chronological record of discoveries and errors. It is the history of the human spirit in its endeavor to understand itself and its relation to the universe.
The purpose of literature is to turn blood into ink.
面对世俗的烦恼要能忍耐，处身纷扰的世事之中要能安闲，心中牵挂的事要能抛开，在功名利禄面前要淡然处之，心怀忿怒之时要能抑制住情绪。
记忆是个奇怪的东西。它并不像我以为的那样运作。我们的构造如此愚蠢，以至于我们携着最早的记忆走过一生，还以为它们是最新近的。
"Art is not about what you see, but what you make others see."
