人类无法长期生活在空虚状态中：如果他不是朝着某个方向成长，他不仅会停滞不前，被压抑的潜能会变成病态和绝望，最终转化为破坏性行为。
The human being cannot live in a condition of emptiness for very long: if he is not growing toward something, he does not merely stagnate; the pent-up potentialities turn into morbidity and despair, and eventually into destructive activities.
不了解敌情，不可以行军打仗，不熟悉洋人的情况，不可以远谋。
"In the end, we are all just trying to make sense of the madness around us."
