客户与建筑师之间的对话是最亲密的对话之一。

Failure is the best teacher. You learn by making mistakes and figuring out how to correct them.

失败是最好的老师。你通过犯错并找出纠正错误的方法来学习。

In a way, I've got some bad news, particularly to anybody who's come to Oxford from abroad. There's a real problem with snobbery, because sometimes people from outside the U.K. imagine that snobbery is a distinctively U.K. phenomenon, fixated on country houses and titles. The bad news is that's not true. Snobbery is a global phenomenon; we area global organization, this is a global phenomenon. What is a snob? A snob is anybody who takes a small part of you, and uses that to come to a complete vision of who you are. That is snobbery.

对那些来访牛津大学的外国友人，我有一个坏消息，这里的人都很势利。有时候，英国以外的人会想象，势利是英国人特有的个性，来自那些乡间别墅和头衔爵位。坏消息是，并不只是这样，势利是一个全球性的问题，我们是个全球性的组织，这是个全球性的问题，它确实存在。势利是什么？，势利是以一小部分的你，来判别你的全部价值，那就是势利。

阿兰·德波顿

凡有读过一点古书的人都有这一种老手段：新起的思想，就是“异端”，必须歼灭的，待到它奋斗之后，自己站住了，这才寻出它原来与“圣教同源”；外来的事物，都要“用夷变夏”，必须排除的，但待到这“夷”入主中夏，却考订出来了，原来连这“夷”也还是黄帝的子孙。这岂非出人意料之外的事呢？无论什么，在我们的“古”里竟无不包函了！

鲁迅

Innovation is not just about new ideas, but the relentless execution of those ideas that truly changes the game.

创新不仅仅是关于新想法，而是对这些想法的坚定执行才能真正改变游戏规则。

西蒙·帕特森

枫叶暗时迷旧宅，芳花落处认荒坟。

Innovation is the eternal driving force for enterprise development; without innovation, there is no future.
