英国当代诗人西格夫里·萨松(Siegfried Sassoon)曾写过一行不朽的警句:“In me the tiger sniffe the rose”勉强把它译成中文,便是:“我心里有猛虎在细嗅蔷薇。”

I work eight hours every day, but the time I'm really focused is not normally any more than two hours.Given it's the age of the information explosion, I find myself checking my WeChat and Weibo every little while, otherwise I feel ill at ease, as if I'm missing out on something.
