"Memory is a strange thing, it doesn't work like I thought it did. We are so used to thinking of it as a camera or a tape recorder, but it's not like that at all. It's more like a painter, who adds and subtracts elements according to his own rules."
记忆是一个奇怪的东西,它的运作方式并不像我们想象的那样。我们习惯于把它想象成相机或录音机,但它完全不是那样的。它更像是一个画家,根据自己的规则添加或删除元素。
Intolerance of others’ views (no matter how ignorant or incoherent they may be) is not simply wrong; in a world where there is no right or wrong, it is worse: it is a sign you are embarrassingly unsophisticated or, possibly, dangerous.
当你观察得足够久时,平凡就会变得非凡。
The only way to do something in depth is to work hard.
