Borges 15 Classic Quotations
1. The best place to hide a leaf is the forest-the book of sand. 2. All literature is talking about one thing, that is, how bitter life is.
Friendship is superior to love because it doesn't need any proof. Once friendship is established, it wants nothing, and it will develop. -"Borges's conversation"
4. Death is living life, and life is death on the road.

Falling in love with someone is like creating a religion, and the god of that religion is unreliable. It is an indisputable fact that Dante's feelings for Beatrice have reached the level of idolatry. Sometimes she laughs at Dante and sometimes ignores him. These facts have been recorded in New Life. Some people claim that those facts are symbols of other facts. If so, we believe more in Dante's misfortune and superstitious love. After Beatrice died, Dante lost her forever. In order to alleviate his grief, he made up the story of meeting her. I think he adopted the trilogy structure in The Divine Comedy, with the purpose of inserting that experience. He remembered the sad situation that he often dreamed of encountering obstacles. -"Borges Oral"

He may want to say that no matter how subtle things are, they all involve the history of the universe and its endless causal relationship. He may want to say that every image of the world is complete, as Schopenhauer said, everyone's will is complete. Mysterious philosophers believe that man is a microscopic universe and a symbolic mirror of the universe; According to Tennyson, everything is like this. Everything, even that unbearable Zaire.
Idealists say that dreams are floating and life and dreams are strictly the same word; I will classify thousands of superficial phenomena into one superficial phenomenon, from an extremely complicated dream to a very simple dream. Others may dream that I am crazy, but I dreamed of Zaire. When people all over the world think about Zaire day and night, which is a dream, which is reality, the world or Zaire? -Alef12, fight like a man and you won't be hanged like a dog.
13, he thinks that there are countless series of time, and the deviation, convergence and parallelism of time are woven into an ever-growing complex net. A time network that is close, divergent, staggered or non-interfering with each other contains all the possibilities.

Surprisingly (I think I haven't found this so far), the image of the representatives elected by countries is not very similar to those of these countries. For example, some people think that Britain should be represented by Dr. Johnson. However, this is not the case. Britain chose Shakespeare, and Shakespeare (let's just say) is the least British writer. English writers are characterized by implication, that is, meaning does not mean anything, while Shakespeare, on the contrary, is good at using exaggeration in metaphors. We wouldn't be surprised if someone said Shakespeare was Italian or Jewish. -"Borges Oral"
17, Yuan Ye is vast in the morning, and it smells like horses in the daytime. For him, this is a brand-new and sometimes cruel life, but he has a tendency to live like this in his blood, because just like other nationalities worship and expect the ocean, we (who introduced this symbol) yearn for the endless plain under the horseshoe.
Before he died, Otalora suddenly realized: From the first day, these people betrayed him, sentenced him to death, gave him women, status and victory, because they regarded him as a dead man, because in Bandera's eyes, he had been swimming at the bottom of the pot. -"Alef"18, insomnia is knowing that you shouldn't wake up alone when others are sleeping alone, eager to fall asleep but unable to sleep, afraid that you will continue to live and be ignorant until dawn.
19, literature can't make you angry, but it can cure you. Literature makes people feel softer and more elastic, and can bear hardships. Because all literary works are telling a story, life is bitter.
Schopenhauer said that everything a person can encounter from birth to death is decided in advance by himself. Therefore, all negligence is thoughtful, all encounters are agreed in advance, all humiliation is punishment, all failures are mysterious victories, and all deaths are suicides. All our misfortunes are caused by ourselves, which is a great relief; This unique theology reveals a secret will to us and wonderfully confuses us with God. -Aref.
2 1, I don't know if these words were written by me or Borges. -Borges and I
22, so I'm afraid it's another dream to wake up, dreaming that I didn't dream. Dreams are nothing but death that reappears every night.
23. What can I use to keep you?
I will give you a thin street, a desperate sunset and a lonely moon. I showed you the sadness of the lonely moon for a long time. I give you my loneliness, my darkness, and my inner desire.

Her story was told for 1,001 nights. -A garden with a forked path

27. intrigue and time are intertwined forever. Admit it, no matter what choice we make, there are still countless possibilities. We are just a way out of the maze. There are countless ways, but there is only one ending: death may be the end, or it may just be a wormhole leading to another starting point-a garden with a forked path.
28. Oh, God, even if I am trapped in a nut shell, I still think I am the king of infinite space. In the second scene of the second act of Hamlet, they will teach us that eternity is the stillness of the present, which is what the philosophical school calls time solidification; But they or anyone else don't understand this, just as they don't understand that the infinite place is the solidification of space. -Aref.
29. Any language is an alphabet of symbols, and the use of language should be based on the speaker's past experience. My memory of shame can hardly include infinite Alef. How can I convey it to others? -Aref.
If I were really a poet, I would think that every moment of life is beautiful, even in some moments that don't look beautiful. But in the end, memories make everything beautiful. -"Borges's conversation"
