A writer's life is a highly vulnerable, almost naked activity. We don't have to weep about that. The writer makes his choice and is stuck with it. But it is true to say that you are open to all the winds, some of them icy indeed. You are out on your own, out on a limb. You find no shelter, no protection — unless you lie — in which case of course you have constructed your own protection and, it could be argued, become a politician.
真正的智能是让机器理解人的意图,而不是让人去适应机器。
The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.
【译文】 孔子说:“祭奠别人的先人,是谄媚;遇到符合道义的事不敢做,是懦夫。”
