爱因斯坦的“相对论”使人觉得懂得之事变少了。 - 每日文摘

"Memory is a strange thing, it doesn't work like I thought it did. We are so used to thinking of it as a camera or a tape recorder, but it's not like that at all. It's more like a painter, who adds and subtracts elements according to his own rules."

记忆是一个奇怪的东西，它的运作方式并不像我们想象的那样。我们习惯于把它想象成相机或录音机，但它完全不是那样的。它更像是一个画家，根据自己的规则添加或删除元素。

我们都愿意为某种事业变得野蛮。好人与坏人的区别在于对事业的选择。

We are all ready to be savage in some cause. The difference between a good man and a bad one is the choice of the cause.

针对孩子有可能被其他孩子欺负的问题，建议的做法是：第一，不能欺负别人。第二，别人欺负你，不要动不动就向老师告状，可以自己尝试着去解决。第三，别人欺负你，必须告诉父母，因为父母怕你受到伤害。但是即使这样，也基本上只是跟父母通个气，问题还得自己尽量想办法解决。

在那样的年纪，我会找任何借口做些估测或者小算术。我会计算油耗还有杂货花销等鸡毛蒜皮的小事。我听过一个有关吸烟的广告。我记不得细节了，但是广告大意是说，每吸一口香烟会减少几分钟的寿命，大概是两分钟。无论如何，我决定为祖母做个算术。我估测了祖母每天要吸几支香烟，每支香烟要吸几口等等，然后心满意足地得出了一个合理的数字。接着，我捅了捅坐在前面的祖母的头，又拍了拍她的肩膀，然后骄傲地宣称，"每天吸两分钟的烟，你就少活九年！"

At that age， I'd take any excuse to make estimates and do minor arithmetic. I'd calculate our gas mileage -- figure out useless statistics on things like grocery spending. I'd been hearing an ad campaign about smoking. I can't remember the details， but basically the ad said， every puff of a cigarette takes some number of minutes off of your life: I think it might have been two minutes per puff. At any rate， I decided to do the math for my grandmother. I estimated the number of cigarettes per days， estimated the number of puffs per cigarette and so on. When I was satisfied that I'd come up with a reasonable number， I poked my head into the front of the car， tapped my grandmother on the shoulder， and proudly proclaimed， "At two minutes per puff， you've taken nine years off your life！"
