The past is always changing. Every time we remember something, we alter it slightly, until eventually, our memories become stories we tell ourselves.

"To understand a place, you must first understand how it came to be."

不如意的事要能排遣，日子清苦要能守得住，无道理的事要受得住，愤怒产生时要忍耐，欲望产生时要克制。

一个人懒惰又奢侈，生活就会贫困；勤劳而节俭，生活就会富足。

"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion."
