獵奇的創作人生兩難！杭特·S·湯普森道出瘋狂藝術家的宿命？ (The Terrible Paradox of Being a Creative Person - Hunter S. Thompson)
- Every man is the sum total of his reactions to experience. As your experiences differ and multiply, you become a different man, and hence your perspective changes. The answer, then, must not deal with goals at all, or not with tangible goals anyway. In short, a man who has found meaning has not dedicated his life to reaching a predefined goal, but he has rather chosen a way of life he knows he will enjoy. The goal is absolutely secondary. It is the functioning toward the goal which is important. The directions we go in life are far less important than whose finger it is that we are following. In Thompson's case, that trembling, pointing finger always remained his own, even up until the last choice he made. And in this, he reminds us, in the most extreme sense, to take control over our lives and live them on our own terms. To step outside the lines. To curve and blur them. To make new ones. To inhale them. He shows us that our work and our lives are always an ongoing process of change, of effort, of labor, of pain, of hope, of laughing, of tripping, of meandering, of loving, and of dying, in hopes that the story will continue in the words of others. His life was as much a part of his work as the words on the pages, each breath as much as each line, revealing the difficulties of making it through this world with any resemblance to the person you were when you came in, while also showing the unbelievable thrill of the whole process.
每個人都是他對經驗的反應的總和。隨著經歷的不同和增加，你會成為一個不同的人，是以你的觀點也會改變。那麼，答案肯定根本不涉及目標，或者無論如何都不涉及有形的目標。簡而言之，一個找到生活意義的人，並不是為了達到一個預定的目標而奉獻一生，而是選擇了一種他知道自己會喜歡的生活方式。目標絕對是次要的。重要的是朝著目標前進的過程。我們生活的方向遠沒有我們跟隨誰的手指重要。在湯普森的例子中，那根顫抖著的手指始終是他自己的，甚至直到他做出最後的選擇。在這一點上，他以最極端的方式提醒我們，要掌控自己的人生，按照自己的意願生

- And that's why you cannot possibly sell all of these foods and American cars and American products in India because the cost of labor in the US is much more expensive, and building stuff in the US is ultimately going to be much more expensive, which means that they are going to be much more expensive for the average Indian, which means that they are much more price sensitive, which means that they won't buy much from the United States to begin with.
