我希望我能写得像猫一样神秘。

The resources we extract must be matched by the value we create for society.

语言是思想的皮肤。

【译文】 粮食尽量精，肉类尽量细。变质的东西不吃；变色的东西不吃，变味的东西不吃；烹饪得不好不吃；不是吃饭的时间不吃；切的不好看不吃；调味品不好不吃。肉类虽多，但不要吃过量。只有酒不限量，但不要喝醉。从集市上买来的酒肉不吃；每餐必有姜，但不多吃。

The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.

质数就是当你把所有模式都去掉后剩下的东西。我认为质数就像生活。它们非常合乎逻辑，但你永远无法弄清楚规则，即使你花所有时间思考它们。

The state, therefore, has not existed from all eternity. There have been societies that did without it, that had no notion of the state or state power. At a certain stage of economic development, which was necessarily bound up with the split of society into classes, the state became a necessity.

The truth is often more surprising than fiction.
