Democracy... while it lasts is more bloody than either aristocracy or monarchy. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide.

小说是一面镜子，不仅反映现实，还映照其中隐藏的裂痕。

最好的设计是功能与美学的结合。

The past is never dead. It's not even past.
