所有故事所指向的终极意义有两个方面:生命的延续与死亡的必然性。
The ultimate meaning to which all stories refer has two faces: the continuity of life, the inevitability of death.
Time is a slippery thing: lose hold of it once, and its string might sail out of your hands forever.
时间是个滑溜溜的东西:一旦失去控制,它的线索可能会永远从你手中溜走。
Life is short, make it sweet.
