西西弗斯的神话

小说是一面映照世界的镜子。

The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody had decided not to see.

The way to learn about the mind is to reverse-engineer it: to figure out what natural selection designed it to accomplish.

释义：怠慢他所尊敬的人会招致凶祸，表面上关系密切而内心疏远的人会陷入孤立，亲近进谗言的人而疏远忠诚正直的人会导致灭亡。这是对人际关系中不良行为后果的警示。
