"Time is a river that carries us away, but it also leaves behind traces of our existence, like footprints in the sand."

人们时常觉得有必要拿出自己特意准备好的一面来展示给路人看——就像是布置商店橱窗一样——而这样的展示一旦时过境迁，也就无须太放在心上了。

I not only came to understand that 'change' was a part of Josie, and that I should be prepared to adapt to it, but I also began to realize that this was not a trait unique to Josie; I came to understand that people often feel the need to present a carefully prepared version of themselves to the outside world - much like arranging a shop window - and once the moment has passed, there's no need to take it too much to heart.

如果有来生，要做一只鸟，飞越永恒，没有迷途的苦恼。东方有火红的希望，南方有温暖的巢床，向西逐退残阳，向北唤醒芬芳。如果有来生，希望每次相遇，都能化为永恒。

张爱玲

我不惧怕任何人。每个人都是平等的。上帝把我们放在这里的目的是一样的。

I'm not intimidated by anyone. Everyone is made the same. God put us all here for the same purpose.

詹妮弗·洛佩兹

要认可对于某块土地的最初占有者的权利，就必须具备下列的条件：首先，这块土地还不曾有人居住；其次，人们只能占有为维持自己的生存所必需的数量；第三，人们之占有这块土地不能凭一种空洞的仪式，而是要凭劳动与耕耘，这是在缺乏法理根据时，所有权能受到别人尊重的唯一标志。

卢梭

最好的建筑是那些既能打动理智又能打动心灵的建筑。

The best buildings are those that speak to both the mind and the heart.
