When buying a garden hose, an extension cord, or a ladder, get one substantially longer than you think you need. It’ll be the right size.
买水管、延长线或梯子时,买比你认为需要的长得多的。才会是正确的尺寸。
——〈在香港大学的演说〉(又名〈革命思想之产生〉),1923年2月19日
"In the end, we are all just stories, told by others and ourselves."
I believe in the power of literature to change the world.
The best music comes from the heart.
相信自己是最强大的力量。
译文:有幸遇到世道太平、年成丰收,正好借此偷闲,此时诸事顺遂。在忘却世俗机心之处,心境如平静的水波,仿佛独自镇守在水晶宫般安宁。
Writing is the only way I know how to live twice.
