写作是一种存在于世界的方式，参与其中，改变它。

The artist must be a shadow of the absolute.

The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.

可持续性不是一种选择，而是农业唯一的出路。

要理解现在，必须挖掘过去。

The chief beauty about time is that you cannot waste it in advance. The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoiled, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your life.

聪明人的快乐是我所知最罕见的东西。
