  They are very weird people. There are billions of them in the world, like colors on the screen of your computer. They will analyze conversations in layers. You will spend the day assembling furniture from IKEA. They drink and eat all kinds of weird stuff just because they like the packaging. They hate each other. You’ll come out the last out of the movies because you have to see the full list of credits. They cant change a light bulb or without making a sketch. They mark up all the tables with their cutters. They rather study the paisley pattern on your outfit than listen to what you have to say. They will fill your house with magazines and whatever is out there that has drawings. You never know if it is really an original or a copy. They make collages with your photos. They do not know how to add and subtract, they just understand letters. They idolize people who nobody knows and speak of them as if they were colleagues. They take pictures almost daily and all are cut in wei...

“I really enjoy doing furniture, and I look at it as a kind of unfinished business.” ——Charles Eames Architecture was better when we did not have “high technology” like computers. Great architecture takes time to design and build. In contrast, the computer is a tool to save time. Therefore, it is not necessary to use a computer to make great architecture. ——坂茂 Somehow我同意一部分它的看法 但计算机远远不是仅仅节省时间，还可以是提高建筑精度的另一种方式（只是想掌握这个方式，你需要投入比较多的时间来学习） Q: To whom does design address itself: To the greatest number? To the specialists or the enlightened amateur? To a privileged social class? A: Each project is designed according to the client’s program and requests—some are for the great number of people, some are for the specialists, and some are for the privileged. More generally, I am disappointed by my profession of architects, because we mainly work for the privileged. I want to work for the general public and even people who lost their houses because of natural disasters. 对坂茂更加尊重，足够的诚实、自省 Design Q...

刘瑞琳   https://www.douban.com/note/211343004/ 原来广西师大的总编辑是她，理想国品牌的创建者，也是她 “实际上，你要抑制自己的野心，这样你才能成为你应该成为的人。” ——Bob Dylan Basically you have to suppress your own ambitions in order to be who you need to be. “为五万个人演奏和为五十个人演奏是完全不同的，五万人更像是一个简单的角色，而五十个人却能呈现出不同的个性，他们能表达出更清晰的诉求，你必须付出最大的才能去征服他们。” 博尔赫斯的第一本书出版一年后只卖出37本，但他对此表示庆幸。在接受《巴黎评论》记者采访时，他说：“你可以试着设想一下这37个人——真实的大活人；我意思是说他们每个人都有一张只属于他自己特有的面孔，他自己的家庭；他住在某条特定的小街上……但是，如果说你的书卖出了，假定两千本吧，这就跟你的书一本都没卖出去是一码事，因为两千这个数字太庞大了，你不可能对两千个读者都有着具体的想象或印象。” At the same time, he sang of love with a power of conviction everyone wants to own. All of a sudden, much of the bookish poetry in our world felt anaemic, and the routine song lyrics his colleagues continued to write were like old-fashioned gunpowder following the invention of dynamite. Soon, people stopped comparing him to Woody Guthrie and Hank Williams and turned instead to Blake, Rimbaud, Whitman, Shakespeare. Chamfort made the observation that when a master such as La Fontaine appears, the hierarchy of genre...

It was that 'I know something that you don't know.' And I wanted to be that kind of performer.” 　　2.“60年代的故事，就像飞碟登陆一样。每个人都听说过，但很少有人亲眼见过。”--"The 60s was like a UFO landing. A lot of people heard about it, but very few actually saw it." 　　3.“英雄是懂得责任与自由同在的人。”--"I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom." 　　4.“我能做的一切就是做我自己，你管我是谁。”--”All i can do is be myself, whoever that is" 　　5.“这世间所谓的真相都在累积一个巨大的谎言。”--"All the truth in the world add up to one big lie" 　　6.“实际上，你要抑制自己的野心，这样你才能成为你应该成为的人。”--“Basically you have to suppress your own ambitions in order to be who you need to be.” 　　7.“被关注是一个负担。耶稣把自己钉在十字架上是因为他发现自己被关注了，所以我经常失踪。”--“Being noticed can be a burden.

  Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Your Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, What brings about the great shifts in the world of literature? Often it is when someone seizes upon a simple, overlooked form, discounted as art in the higher sense, and makes it mutate. Thus, at one point, emerged the modern novel from anecdote and letter, thus arose drama in a new age from high jinx on planks placed on barrels in a marketplace, thus songs in the vernacular dethroned learned Latin poetry, thus too did La Fontaine take animal fables and Hans Christian Andersen fairy tales from the nursery to Parnassian heights. Each time this occurs, our idea of literature changes. In itself, it ought not to be a sensation that a singer/songwriter now stands recipient of the literary Nobel Prize. In a distant past, all poetry was sung or tunefully recited, poets were rhapsodes, bards, troubadours; ‘lyrics’ comes from ‘lyre’. But what Bob Dylan did was not to return to the Greeks or the P...
