我一直觉得奇怪……我们钦佩的那些品质，如善良、慷慨、开放、诚实、理解和同情，在我们的体系中往往是失败的伴随物。而我们厌恶的那些特质，如精明、贪婪、占有欲、卑鄙、自负和自私，却是成功的特质。虽然人们钦佩前者的品质，但他们却喜欢后者的产物。

The market is never wrong; opinions often are.

A rich man's body is like a premium cotton pillow, white and soft and blank. Ours are different. My father's spine was a knotted rope, and the skin on his chest was so thin that you could see the ribs pressing out against it.

悲伤是爱的影子。
