The motor of our ingenuity is the question ‘Does it have to be like this?’, from which arise political reforms, scientific developments, improved relationships, better books.
创造力的发动机是提出一个问题:“一定要这样吗?” 政治改革、科学发展、关系改善以及更好的书都是提出这个问题后出现的。《哲学的慰藉》
"The future belongs to those who can collaborate across boundaries."
"The beauty of literature is that it allows us to live a thousand lives in the span of one."
Never underestimate the importance of "useless" fundamental research.
