Vicent > Don Mclean Starry, starry night Flaming flowers that brightly blaze Swirling clouds in violet haze Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue Colors changing hue Morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined in pain Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand Now I understand what you tried to say to me How you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they did not know how Perhaps, they'll listen now For they could not love you And still your love was true And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night You took your life as lovers often do But I could have told you, Vincent This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you Now I think I know what you tried to say to me How you suffered for your sanity Then how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they're not listening still Perhaps, they never will...

聪明人de经济学
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 网游让孩子变坏了吗? 重点中学让学生变好了吗? 为什么辞职的都是有实力的员工? 为什么垃圾邮件推销的东西是骗人的? 为什么总骂自己朋友是笨蛋的人也是笨蛋? %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 眼珠子只能看到现象,脑瓜子才能看到真相。 --------------------- 智慧de分隔线 --------------------- 蛋鸡生鸡蛋?鸡蛋生蛋鸡? “……怎么那么笨啊你!我不是和你说在车站等的嘛……太笨了……好了不和你说了,我小灵通响了…….喂!侬岗啥?钥匙不就在电视柜上嘛!侬个死人哪能那么笨啊,连个钥匙都寻不到……行行侬自己去寻吧,笨死算了……” 这是我在公交车上听到的一段手机独白,分贝数之高和怒火之旺很难用人类的语言形容,那位大姐挂了电话以后还意犹未尽,继续骂着“宁哪能嘎港啊(人还能那么笨啊)……”我也顿时对这位大姐心生同情,心想她自己也一定不会聪明到哪去,否则也没那么好的运气认识这些不聪明的朋友和老公。人以群分。不过她可能一辈子都不会意识到自己的圈子也不是突然天上掉的,所以其实周围人的素质是自己的素质决定的。如果真的告诉这位火爆大姐她自己天天郁闷的原因竟然就是她自己,不知她会作何感想。 如同鸡和蛋的关系一样,这世界充满了酷似原因的结果和仿佛结果的原因。 九十年代中期,美国的青少年犯罪率为何显著下降?是因为政府的教育有方还是因为经济的突飞猛进?畅销书《Freakonomics》告诉了我们答案,原因竟然是因为20年前“堕胎合法化”的出台!事实上,由于急需堕胎的女子多半是一些未婚的糊涂少女,所以,如果堕胎不被法律允许,那么她们中的很多人将被迫生下可怜的baby,显而易见,这些孩子很难得到较好的成长条件,于是,在十几年后,他们中的大多数将成为不良少年,也就是违法乱纪的中坚力量。 而20年前堕胎的合法化意味着,实际上,这些不良少年根本就没有机会来到这个世界上了! …… 这叫什么来着?对了,“ 蝴蝶效应 ”。 有的时候,到底谁是原因真的是很难弄清的一个问题。 --------------------- 智慧de分隔线 --------------------- ...
SOME THOUGHTS ON THE REAL WORLD BY ONE WHO GLIMPSED IT AND FLED
Bill Watterson Kenyon College Commencement May 20, 1990 I have a recurring dream about Kenyon. In it, I'm walking to the post office on the way to my first class at the start of the school year. Suddenly it occurs to me that I don't have my schedule memorized, and I'm not sure which classes I'm taking, or where exactly I'm supposed to be going. As I walk up the steps to the postoffice, I realize I don't have my box key, and in fact, I can't remember what my box number is. I'm certain that everyone I know has written me a letter, but I can't get them. I get more flustered and annoyed by the minute. I head back to Middle Path, racking my brains and asking myself, "How many more years until I graduate? ...Wait, didn't I graduate already?? How old AM I?" Then I wake up. Experience is food for the brain. And four years at Kenyon is a rich meal. I suppose it should be no surprise that your brains will probably burp up Kenyon for a lo...
