Cities are a stage where life is played out.

Society can and does execute its own mandates， and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right， or any mandates at all in things with which it ought not to meddle， it practices a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression， since， though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties， it leaves fewer means of escape， penetrating much more deeply into the details of life， and enslaving the soul itself.

Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans.

You can't change the past, but you can shape the future.

I don't feel like I have to be a role model. I just want to be myself.

一个国家的法律如果不能保证公平公正、不能惩恶扬善、不能保障人民的利益，就不能当做法律。

成功不是终点，失败也非致命，重要的是继续前进的勇气。

The future belongs to those who dare to innovate.
