If you go back a few hundred years, what we take for granted today would seem like magic—being able to talk to people over long distances, to transmit images, flying, accessing vast amounts of data like an oracle. These are all things that would have been considered magic a few hundred years ago.
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.
生活是个婊子,死亡是她的姐妹。
If you’re not willing to take risks, you’ll never create something truly remarkable.
在自然界中,没有什么是孤立存在的。
我不觉得有义务相信,那位赋予我们感官、理性和智力的上帝,会希望我们放弃使用它们。
