Mr.Tully, for most people, sex is 99% friction and 1% goodwill. Call me old-fashioned, but I place value on physical intimacy. So should you.

There is nothing new in human experience, Mr. Tully. Each generation thinks it invented debauchery, or suffering, or rebellion, but man's every impulse and appetite, from the disgusting to the sublime, is on display right here all around you. So, before you dismiss something as boring or irrelevant, remember, if you truly want to understand the present or yourself, you must begin in the past. History is not simply the study of the past. It is an explanation of the present.

World is decay. Life is perception. 世界在衰退。隻有感知才是永恒的。

希臘人認為無論你想怎麼樣去避免所謂的宿命,都會迫使你更接近它。但這隻是一種文學概念。在現實生活中,你的過去不會主宰你的命運。
