Yi Shu said that the sign of a person's real maturity is to find that fewer and fewer people can be blamed. The reason is very simple, everyone has their own difficulties, and you may not understand their life.
Not all the fish live in the same sea. The world is suffering, only by itself. Adults are more bitter to swallow, and do not disturb other people's lives.

《WITH THE END IN MIND》Kathryn Mannix

“There are only two days with fewer than twenty-four hours in each lifetime, sitting like bookends astride our lives: one is celebrated every year, yet it is the other that makes us see living as precious.”

这一段在读译本的时候一点感觉都没有，因为译本把bookends翻译成“书签”。但书签是穿插在书页里做标注的，bookends（书立）才有“起点”和“终点”的意味。读到原文里这一段，发现作者在此处点题了：只有认识并理解了死亡，才能更珍惜活着的每一天。
