But then if you know about dinosaurs whereas I don't, you're better off and richer than I am. Am I right?”
― Wang Meng, Other Voices, Other Vistas: Short Stories from Africa, China, India, Japan and Latin America

“And at home by the fire, whenever you look up there I shall be— and whenever I look up, there will be you.
