"Geschichte wird von denen geschrieben, die sie überleben."
Every work of art is an uncommitted crime.
容易得到的东西,是靠不住的;轻易许下的诺言,不值得信赖。
No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.
The past, like the future, is indefinite and exists only as a spectrum of possibilities.
