When you want to help people, you tell them the truth. When you want to help yourself, you tell them what they want to hear.
Thomas Sowell
What I didn’t do:
- I’ve been lax with my journaling this week.
Song I shared this week: 陳一發兒 - 童話鎮 - YouTube
This song just has a special feel when sung by Chen Yifa.
Book I shared this week: 东方快车谋杀案 (豆瓣)
Detective fiction is actually excellent material for exercising logical thinking, and Agatha Christie’s novels are especially good in this regard. Huang Renyu once said he was particularly fond of detective novels, and was even criticized by his seniors for it. In truth, detective fiction and historical research are not so different — both involve analyzing and probing from the clues at hand.
