The true writer is always an outsider, even in his own country.
真正的作家永远是个局外人,即使在自己的国家也是如此。
Science is the backbone of our industry, but compassion is its soul.
Recursion is the root of computation since it trades description for time.
——〈在广州岭南学生欢迎会上的演说〉,1923年12月21日
The function of freedom is to free someone else.
人是一切事物的尺度。
