So given a Time Turner， I would tell my 21-year-old self that personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications， your CV， are not your life， though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult， and complicated， and beyond anyone’s total control， and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.
如果给我一部时间机器，我会告诉21岁的自己，人的幸福在于知道生活不是一份漂亮的成绩单，你的资历、简历，都不是你的生活，虽然你会碰到很多与我同龄或更老一点的人今天依然还在混淆两者。生活是艰辛的，复杂的，超出任何人的控制能力，而谦恭地了解这一点，将使你历经沧桑后能够更好的生存。
建筑是一门视觉艺术，建筑物会自己说话。
吃饭不可不嚼便咽，走路不可不看便走，话不可不考虑便信口乱说，事不可不计划就贸然去做，衣服不能随便就脱，钱财不能随便据为已有，怒气不可不忍而任意发作，朋友不可不加选择地乱交。
The best way to predict the future is to create it.
The ocean's potential is limitless, but our wisdom in harnessing it is not.
