When you see darkness in front of you,you should know that it’s you who are shining.

The enemy of pressure is fun.When you turn everything into fun,the pressure will decline naturally.
—To Live a Willful Lifeby Chua Lam
壓力的敵對頭,是好玩,什么東西都把它變成好玩,壓力自然減少。
——蔡瀾《不如任性過生活》
I have been more concerned with the obscure than with the famous.They are more often themselves.They have had no need to create a figure to protect themselves from the world or to impress it.The great man is too often all of a piece;it is the little man that is a bundle of contradictory elements.
—The SummingUpby William Somerset Maugham
與聲名顯赫之輩相比,我一直更加關注無名之人,他們才是本來的自己。他們沒必要裝成另一個人來保護自己不受世人侵犯,或給世人留下深刻印象。偉人通常是始終如一的,小人物則是各種矛盾的結合體。
——毛姆《總結》
Economic history is a never-ending series of episodes based on falsehoods and lies,not truths.It represents the path to big money.The object is to recognize the trend whose premise is false,ride that trend and step off before it is discredited.
—George Soros,American financial investor
經濟史是一部基于假象和謊言的連續劇,正確的做法就是認清其假象,投入其中,在假象被公眾認識之前退出游戲。
——金融投資家索羅斯
