To say that a thing has never yet been done among men is to erect a barrier stronger than reason, stronger than discussion.

  • -- Thomas Brackett Reed 汤玛斯·勃兰契特·瑞德

If you create something that is asking for people to respond as they're going to respond, you have to allow them to respond as they're going to respond. Some of the people are going to be uninterested and some people are going to be mad for some reason, which is their business. That's just the way the world is.

如果你创造了一些东西，要求人们按照他们的意愿去回应，你必须允许他们按照他们的意愿去回应。有些人会不感兴趣，有些人会因为某些原因而生气，这是他们的事。世界就是这样。
