爱不用太笨 [转]

From 蔡康永的博客

談戀愛的對象,最好比你笨 ——
戀愛是艱難的對決,
何苦去招惹你打不過的對手。
嗯…..可是啊……

談戀愛的對象,最好比你聰明 ——
戀愛確實是艱難的對決,
但請不要搞錯對手:
愛情、才是你的對手;
至於愛人、是你的做戰夥伴、隊友。

Oh, the (Lack of) Humanity

"So the next time a bum tries to cadge a buck out of you, at least have the courtesy to pull the earbuds out and engage him as a fellow human being. Don’t give him any money if you don’t want to. But acknowledge him. He’s not a blot on your aesthetic little world. If he is, well, your problems are bigger than his."

Think Different

// October 16th, 2006 // No Comments » // Quotation

Here’s to the crazy ones.

The misfits.

The rebels.

The troublemakers.

The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules

And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,

disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing that you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things.

They invent. They imagine. They heal.

They explore. They create. They inspire.
They push the human race forward.
Maybe they have to be crazy.

How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?

Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written?
Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?
We make tools for these kinds of people.

While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can

change the world, are the ones who do.

“At 30 a man should know
himself like the palm of his hand, know the exact number of his defects and
qualities, know how far he can go, foretell his
failures - be what he is. And, above all, accept these things.”
