人类一思考,上帝就要发笑。看到这句话时,我就想象起那个无所不在的万能的上帝带着满脸轻视的神情嘲笑人类的样子。心里就对他腹诽的不行。人类的思想可能有限可能幼稚可能无聊可能恶劣……可无论怎样也是人类自身产生的东西啊。人只要长了一颗能产生思想并能进行思维运作的大脑,那思想就是人类的权力,凭什么要笑?思想是人类的权力。可是我们有多少时间是自己在思想呢?也有不跟屁的,比如莫言。我前不久看了他的《檀香刑》,没看下去。倒不是说他写的不好。但一个现代人坐在二十一世纪的有着空调暖气的大楼里,却瞪着眼睛看一个世纪以前的事,然后对眼面前的世界漠不关心,总觉得不那么地道。我们的思想也该进化了不是?不能总在现代的空气里呼吸着古时的尘风墓土啊。...
The Eureka Stockadeby Raffaello CarboniNOTA BENEIn Person I solicit no subscriptionin writing I hereby ask no favour from my reader.

道德经第一章[原文]道可道也①,非恒道也②。名可名也③,非恒名也。无名④,万物之始也;有名⑤,万物之母也⑥。故恒无欲也⑦,以观其眇⑧;恒有欲也,以观其所徼⑨。两者同出,异名同谓⑩。玄之又玄⑾,众眇之门⑿。[译文]“道”如果可以用言语来表述,那它就是常“道”(“道”是可以用言语来表述的,它并非一般的“道”);“名”如果可以用文辞去命名,那它就是常“名”(“名”也是可以说明的,它并非普通的“名”)。“无”可以用来表述天地浑沌未开之际的状况;而“有”,则是宇宙万物产生之本原的命名。因此,要常从“无”中去观察领悟“道”的奥妙;要常从“有”中去观察体会“道”的端倪。无与有这两者,来源相同而名称相异,都可以称之为玄妙、深远。它不是一般的玄妙、深奥,而是玄妙又玄妙、深远又深远,是宇宙天地万物之奥妙的总门(从“有名”的奥妙到达无形的奥妙,“道”是洞悉一切奥妙变化的门径)。...
Common Senseby Thomas PaineINTRODUCTIONPerhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages,are not YET sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favour;a long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficialappearance of being RIGHT, and raises at first a formidable outcryin defense of custom.

第一部分一夜之间劳燕分飞(1)作者 : 唐达天 1.落下最后一个字,泪水早已模糊了我的双眼。我没有想到,生生死死的相恋,竟在一夜之间劳燕分飞了。 我拖着手提箱,疲惫不堪地走在深圳的大街上,脑子里一片空白。我看不清风吹来的方向,也不知道哪儿是我的出口,只听见刀郎在拼命地吼:“我站在北方的天空下,任晚风吹乱我头发……”那种苍凉,那种孤独,直入骨髓。我是北方人,此刻,却站在南方的天空下,任海风吹乱我的头发。我也想吼,像刀郎那样撕心裂肺地吼,吼出我的郁闷,吼出我的心忧。但是,我却吼不出来,嗓子仿佛被什么东西堵住了,噎得我泪流满面。来来往往的人流从我的身边穿梭而过,没有人会留意我的存在,更没有人关心我是从哪里来,要到哪里去。...
