写作的行为是一种勇气的行为，是对虚无的挑战。

The world is so unpredictable. Things happen suddenly, unexpectedly. We want to feel we are in control of our own existence. In some ways we are, in some ways we're not.

The tyranny of a prince in an oligarchy is not so dangerous to the public welfare as the apathy of a citizen in a democracy.

It is because nations tend to stupidity and baseness that democracy is possible.
