写作不是揭示真相，而是创造一个可以发现真相的空间。
Writing is not about revealing the truth, but about creating a space where the truth can be discovered.
出自《魏源集·默觚下·治篇五》。三代以上，天都跟现在的天不一样，地都跟现在的地不一样，人也跟现在的人不一样，物也和现在的物不一样。
Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks.
