把这一句，留给此刻的你
As soon as you start writing about how human beings interact with each other socially, you're into politics, aren't you?
一旦你开始写关于人类如何在社会上相互影响，你就进入了政治，不是吗?
— Jonathan Coe 乔纳森·科伊

写作教会我的一件事是，小说有自己的生命。虚构的地方有时比我们卧室窗外的景色更真实。虚构的人有时会变得和我们所爱的人一样亲近。

The discovery of a new dish confers more happiness on humanity, than the discovery of a new star.
发现一道新菜比发现一颗新星更能给人类带来幸福。

The job of buildings is to improve human relations: architecture must ease them, not make them worse.
建筑的任务是改善人与人之间的关系:建筑必须让人放松，而不是让人变得更糟。
Ralph Erskine

Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more man’s nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out.
复仇是一种野蛮的正义，人的天性越是追求这种正义，法律就越应该把它铲除。
Francis Bacon
弗朗西斯·培根
It is not necessarily those lands which are the most fertile or most favored in climate that seem to me the happiest, but those in which a long struggle of adaptation between man and his environment has brought out the best qualities of both.
在我看来，并不一定是那些最肥沃或气候最适宜的土地是最幸福的，而是那些人类与其环境之间长期的适应斗争使两者都具备了最好的品质的土地。
T. S. Eliot
T.S.艾略特
Each of us knows that we have an obligation to care for the old, the young and the sick. We stand strongest when we stand with the weakest among us.
我们每个人都知道我们有义务照顾老人、小孩和病人。当我们与我们当中最弱小的人站在一起时，我们就会最强。
