人性的弱点总是充满贪婪、恐惧或者是愚蠢，这是完全可以预测的，但是我们无法预测这种人性弱点的发生顺序。

孔子说：“君子有三件事要敬畏：敬畏自然规律、敬畏大人物、敬畏圣人的话。小人不懂自然规律因而也就不敬畏自然，不尊重大人物，戏侮圣人的言论。”

恐惧只是一种心态。

"We carry our histories with us, in our bones and in our blood."

"The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success."

The future is not something we enter. The future is something we create.

诗人是个伪装者。他伪装得如此彻底，以至于假装成他真正感受到的痛苦。
