把这一句,留给此刻的你
You have a different crowd every night, so you should do a different show to suit them. I tailor the show to their mood.
你每天晚上都有不同的观众,所以你应该做一个不同的节目来迎合他们。我根据他们的心情来调整演出。

Quintilian
昆提利亚语
One might call habit a moral friction: something that prevents the mind from gliding over things but connects it with them and makes it hard for it to free itself from them.
人们可能会把习惯称为道德摩擦:一种阻止思维掠过事物,但又将其与之联系起来,使其难以摆脱的东西。
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
利希滕贝格
Don’t try to understand everything. Because sometimes it’s not meant to be understood, but to be accepted.
不要试图理解一切。因为有时候它不是用来被理解的,而是用来被接受的。

Once conform, once do what other people do because they do it, and a lethargy steals over all the finer nerves and faculties of the soul. She becomes all outer show and inward emptiness; dull, callous, and indifferent.
一旦循规蹈矩,一旦惟命是从,懒散就笼罩着灵魂中一切灵敏的神经和官能。她变得徒有其表,内心空虚;迟钝、冷酷、冷漠。
Virginia Woolf
弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫
It's hard to argue against cynics -- they always sound smarter than optimists because they have so much evidence on their side.
很难反驳愤世嫉俗者——他们总是比乐观主义者听起来更聪明,因为他们有那么多的证据支持自己。
