To understand just one life, you have to swallow the world.

Policy should be based on evidence, not ideology.

The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.

人类的所有成就都源于创造性幻想。那么我们没有权利轻视想象力。

我们从未放下任何事，我们只是继续下一件事。

We are all the sum of our memories.

没人会和你自己一样对你所拥有的东西印象深刻。（Morgan Housel《金钱心理学》里面的一句话，可以理解为禀赋效应：即，由于情感上的偏见，人们在自己已经拥有的东西上比尚未获得的东西拥有更大的价值）
