I'm interested in the idea of something being art because someone says it is.

眼界要开阔，就要游鉴名山大川；度量应宏大，须得熟读经史典籍。

I am fascinated by the dark side of human nature.

Words are wise men's counters, they do but reckon by them; but they are the money of fools.

不要以为世界上的人都在关心你的事。你是不是以为人人都在盯着你？其实，各人有各人的烦心事，没人管你这档事儿。
