[To Gordon] You’ll hunt me. You’ll condemn me. Set the dogs on me. Because that’s what needs to happen. Because sometimes … the truth isn’t good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.

– The Dark Knight

If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.

The silent treatment was a punishment I didn’t fully understand until years later in life. That’s how you change the world. Not by arguing with people. Certainly not by screaming at them. You do it by ignoring them.

中華民國光復大陸的可能

.

2000年至2008年，傾向臺獨政策的民進黨執政，時任領導人的陳水扁將《國家統一綱領》「終止適用」(cease to apply)，民進黨政府亦傾向於將中華民國主權範圍從法理上變更為臺澎金馬地區。現任中華民國總統馬英九曾經表示：「大陸地區主權為中華民國所有。依據中華民國憲法，中華民國亦沒有放棄大陸地區（包括現蒙古國）的主權。」

隨着兩岸關係逐步化解敵對，正在朝着和解的形勢發展，存在各方何談讓步的可能。幾次江陳會後，馬英九表示不排除在可能的連任後與大陸討論政治議題。近幾年大陸的民主自由程度逐漸提高，當局對不同政見也在一定程度上放寬限制，而一個地區民主程度隨經濟的穩定發展而不斷提高也是必然的。歷史的仇恨化解的同時，歷史真相越來越多地被還原，人民對歷史的認識也逐漸脫離早先政府劃定的相互敵視的意識形態，而是更務實地追求現實中民主、自由、平等的環境。在可能的若干年，或許國民黨等黨派有機會在大陸進行政黨競選活動並且進行政府的民主選舉，大陸人民能選擇自己認為最好的國家稱謂、政治制度甚至是各級政府領導人。

軀體在人睡眠時進入麻痹狀態是一個必要的過程，以避免人在做夢時對軀體進行真正的移動。當身體已經在這個階段，但腦的一部分還處於完全工作狀態時，會發生睡眠癱瘓。睡眠癱瘓常伴有恐慌發作，因為人還處於有意識的狀態。同時伴隨聽覺和視覺上的幻覺，對於睡眠癱瘓也是很典型的，然後漸漸進入「夢境」。通常還會有「假醒」，即人醒過來，發現自己原來還在夢裡，現實中也還在睡眠。這樣的「假醒」通常會多次重複，伴隨的還有來自於對這種無終止重複的恐懼。通常是可以打斷這種重複與麻痹的，如通過試着對小指的移動等。

* We’re in a freefall into future. We don’t know where we’re going. This are changing so fast, and always when you’re going through a long tunnel, anxiety comes along. And all you have to do to transform your hell into a paradise is to turn your fall into a voluntary act. It’s a very interesting shift of perspective and that’s all it is… joyful participation in the sorrows and everything changes.

Gradually I learned to be indifferent to myself and my deficiencies;

I came to centre my attention increasingly upon external objects:

the state of the wold,

various branches of knowledge,

individuals for whom I felt affection.
