"Imagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not, and therefore the fount of all invention and innovation. In its arguably most transformative and revelatory capacity, it is the power that enables us to empathize with humans whose experiences we have never shared."

I don't like being defined because I'm ever-changing.

If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat! Just get on.

不可以同井底的青蛙谈论大海的辽阔，因为有空间的拘束；不可以同夏天的小虫谈论冰冻的寒冷，因为有时节的局限。

不经过一年中最寒冷的时候，无法知道松柏是最后凋谢的；不经过艰难的考验，无法知道一个人是不是真正的君子。
