Khalil Gibran
纪伯伦
We are biological creatures. We are born, we live, we die. There is no transcendent purpose to existence. At best we are creatures of reason, and by using reason we can cure ourselves of emotional excess. Purged of both hope and fear, we find courage in the face of helplessness, insignificance and uncertainty.
我们是生物。我们出生，我们生活，我们死亡。存在没有超越的目的。我们至多是理性的产物，通过理性，我们可以治愈自己的情感过剩。清除了希望和恐惧，我们在无助、渺小和不确定中找到了勇气。
Jonathan Sacks
乔纳森·萨克斯
Life is a process. We are a process. The universe is a process.
生活是一个过程。我们是一个过程。宇宙是一个过程。

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。

Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance or a stranger.
诚实的批评很难接受，尤其是来自亲戚、朋友、熟人或陌生人的批评。

One of the things that writing has taught me is that fiction has a life of its own. Fictional places are sometimes more real than the view from our bedroom window. Fictional people can sometimes become as close to us as our loved ones.
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。
