移动的手指在书写;一旦写下,便继续前行:无论是你的虔诚还是智慧,都无法引诱它回来取消半行,你的泪水也无法洗去一个字。
The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.
The best armor of old age is a well-spent life perfecting it.
生命太短暂,不能浪费在糟糕的书上。
The past is a foreign country, but we are all its citizens.
The act of writing is an act of optimism. You would not take the trouble to do it if you felt it didn't matter.
