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.
有一个快乐的境况出现，但就有一个不快乐的境况相对立；有一处优美的风景出现，但就立即有一处不优美的风景相抵销。
If it were not for art, I would have killed myself a long time ago.
