Witticisms please as long as we keep them within boundaries, but pushed to excess they cause offense.

  • -- Phaedrus 菲得洛斯

俏皮话只要我们把它们限制在一定范围内，就会让人高兴，但如果我们把它们推得太过，就会引起冒犯。

Wit Excess

相关名言

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。
