I wanted to write a book about memory because I think it's one of the most fascinating things about being human.

我的科学研究给我带来了极大的满足；我深信，用不了多久，全世界都会承认我的工作成果。

缓慢的程度与记忆的强度成正比。速度的程度与遗忘的强度成正比。

You have to be able to admit when you’re wrong and get out of a losing position quickly. The worst thing you can do is hold onto a losing trade hoping it will come back.

You can't just sit there and wait for life to come to you. You have to go get it.

我相信创造的激情，相信梦想比现实更有力量。
