文明是一条有岸的河流。河流有时充满了人们杀戮、偷窃、喊叫和做历史学家通常记录的事情的血，而在岸上，不被注意，人们建造家园，做爱，抚养孩子，唱歌，写诗，甚至雕刻雕像。文明的故事是发生在岸上的故事。
Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks.
You can't change what's going on around you until you start changing what's going on within you.
最重要的是讲一个好故事。其他一切都是次要的。
The beauty of physics lies in its ability to reveal the hidden connections between seemingly unrelated phenomena.
时间并不能治愈所有伤口，它只是教会我们如何与痛苦共存。
