下雨天，讀書天。

加了推特，隻跟good read。除了娛樂之外，有些推文推薦的文章和書也不錯，比如這篇：

裏麵提到Orwell 對希特勒的一個評價，很有意思：

When one compares his utterances of a year or so ago with those made fifteen years earlier, a thing that strikes one is the rigidity of his mind, the way in which his world-view doesn’t develop. It is the fixed vision of a monomaniac and not likely to be much affected by the temporary manoeuvres of power politics.

很有趣的比較和發現。

三四年前聽了Churchill and Orwell: The Fight for Freedom by Thomas E. Ricks, 就很喜歡。再去找Orwell的 Animal Farm 和1984 來聽。很受啟發。1984的描寫讓人恐怖，因為曆史表明他的虛構，卻是那麽逼真。
