"比起原創力這個問題， 我更關心的是民生。"

Agreed. The rest should follow naturally. 

This is a simple observation, but also the most profound.

A great scientist seeks no creativity but understanding nature, which is a consequence of a deep sympathy for existence itself, and which is the source of all great thoughts, including the scientific ones. Einstein or Maxwell sought no after creativity but truth.

When the livelihood of a people is in trouble, this is in where this sympathy should lie, and where the truth is.
