Wisdom acquisition is a moral duty.It's not something you do just to advance in life...You are not going to get very far in life based on what you already know.You're going to advance in life by what you learn after you leave here.

I think it's merely the randomness of the winning and losing process that I want to stress, because the emphasis nowadays is so much on the justice of everything, and politicians always talk about justice. Now I'm a firm believer in justice, I just think that it's impossible. So we should do everything we can to pursue it, but we should always remember that whoever is facing us, whatever has happened in their lives, there will be a strong element of the haphazard. That's what I'm trying to leave room for; otherwise, it can get quite claustrophobic.

The only limits we have are the ones we set for ourselves.

大自然倾向于在她所有的作品中产生恒常性，但并不总是成功。

The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty; not knowing what comes next.
