To boast of a performance which I cannot beat is merely stupid vanity. And if I can beat it that means there is nothing special about it. What has passed is already finished with. What I find more interesting is what is still to come.

吹嘘一场我打不过的表演,纯粹是愚蠢的虚荣。如果我能打败它,那就说明它没什么特别的。过去的已经过去了。我发现更有趣的是还会发生什么。
