Works of art, in my opinion, are the only objects in the material universe to possess internal order, and that is why, though I don't believe that only art matters, I do believe in Art for Art's sake.

-- E. M. Forster E·M·福斯特

在我看来，艺术作品是物质世界中唯一具有内在秩序的对象，这就是为什么，虽然我不认为只有艺术才重要，但我相信艺术是为了艺术而艺术。

To me, being popular means I've got more friends. You've got to watch who your friends are, if you want to get close to them, but I've got a lot of acquaintances. And then, you've got to be real careful who your friends are, because you never know why they're your friend.

对我来说，受欢迎意味着我有了更多的朋友。如果你想接近你的朋友，你必须注意他们是谁，但我有很多熟人。然后，你必须非常小心你的朋友是谁，因为你永远不知道他们为什么是你的朋友。
