The personal is historical, and the historical is personal.
个人的就是历史的,历史的也是个人的。
If you want to make a bond, you are to take the risk of tearing.
人生没有绝对的答案,只有不断的尝试。
So given a Time Turner, I would tell my 21-year-old self that personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications, your CV, are not your life, though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult, and complicated, and beyond anyone’s total control, and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.
最伟大的突破来自那些拒绝放弃的人。
生存就是在苦难中找到意义。
