For those men who, sooner or later, are lucky enough to break away from the pack, the most intoxicating moment comes when they cease being bodies in other men's command and find that they control their own time, when they learn their own voice and authority.

  • -- Theodore H. White 白修德

对于那些迟早会幸运地脱离群体的男人来说,最令人陶醉的时刻是,他们不再是受他人支配的躯体,而是发现自己掌握了自己的时间,学会了自己的声音和权威。
