I am not a fast thinker at all. I have to spend a lot of time before I can understand something.

我根本不是一个思维敏捷的人。我必须花很多时间才能理解一些东西。

祖宗虽远，祭祀不可不诚；子孙虽愚，经书不可不读。居身务期简朴；教子要有义方。勿贪意外之财，勿饮过量之酒。与肩挑贸易，勿占便宜；见穷苦亲邻，须加温恤。刻薄成家，理无久享；伦常乖舛，立见消亡。兄弟叔侄，需分多润寡，长幼内外，宜法肃辞严。听妇言，乖骨肉，岂是丈夫，重赀才，薄父母，不成人子。嫁女择佳婿，无索重聘；娶媳求淑女，勿计厚奁。

朱熹

吾思即吾剑。我的兄弟有他的长剑、国王罗伯特有他的战锤，而我有的是脑子……头脑要阅读才能保持清醒，就像剑要磨才锋利一样。

My mind is my weapon. My brother has his sword, King Robert has his warhammer, and I have my mind... And a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.

乔治·R·R·马丁

我真不知怎么才能和你亲近起来，你好像是一个可望而不可及的目标，我琢磨不透，追也追不上，就坐下哭了起来。你要是喜欢别人我会哭，但是还是喜欢你。

王小波

也许每一个男子全都有过这样的两个女人，至少两个。娶了红玫瑰，久而久之，红的变了墙上的一抹蚊子血，白的还是“床前明月光”；娶了白玫瑰，白的便是衣服上的一粒饭粘子，红的却是心口上的一颗朱砂痣。

张爱玲

对我来说，无畏不是没有恐惧。不是完全不害怕。对我来说，无畏是有恐惧。无畏是有怀疑。很多怀疑。对我来说，无畏是尽管有那些让你害怕得要死的事情，仍然生活下去。

To me, fearless is not the absence of fear. It's not being completely unafraid. To me, fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.
