“便利商店賣咖啡，「整個城市都是我的咖啡館」，多好的廣告。美式咖啡一杯二十五元，小杯拿鐵三十元，有時還買一送一，買大送小，不用本錢似的。可是還是有人偏偏要去店裡喝一杯九十元、一百一的拿鐵、卡布其諾，尤其是焦糖拿鐵，據說是招牌，我知道為什麼，不是因為店長漂亮啦，又不是每個人都是豬哥。我們有個店員也很漂亮啊，上班不到三個月就被把走了。我覺得阿布咖啡這種店賣的是氣氛，你看我們就這麼緊鄰著，我有時也會聞到咖啡香，烘焙蛋糕的氣味會從後面防火巷傳過來，我去後頭倉庫整理貨的時候，會流口水，真的止都止不住，交換班的時候，我也會晃過去往裡頭瞧，隔著一層玻璃，像隔開一個世界，我們在這裡叮咚，歡迎光臨，跑斷腿在那裡結帳、收銀、煮咖啡、賣霜淇淋、影印、傳真、收包裹、發傳真、收水電費、拿演唱會的票、收宅配，簡直像是萬事通，我媽都笑我說以前啥都不會，現在什麼都會，如果店裡開始賣牛肉麵，我一點也不會覺得奇怪，真的，便利商店，早晚會把雜貨店、超市、郵局、洗衣店、快餐店、咖啡店，這個那個所有的店都取代了，那時我們的生活就完了，微波、速食、廉價，什麼都變得廉價淺薄了，就像我們這種員工一樣，我啥都會，可是出去其他地方，也等於什麼都不會，我們學的這些，真的到專業的店裡，也用不上。”

“The one drawback to print is that the uniform finality of black on white leads the innocent to believe that every word so enshrined is true. And when these truths diverge from book to book (for the incentive to write and publish is also increased), the intellectual life is changed. From being more or less a duel, it becomes a free-for-all. The scrimmage makes for a blur of ideas, now accepted as a constant and fondly believed to be, like the free market, the ideal method for sifting truth.”

“There are not more than five musical notes, yet the combinations of these five give rise to more melodies than can ever be heard. There are not more than five primary colours, yet in combination they produce more hues than can ever been seen. There are not more than five cardinal tastes, yet combinations of them yield more flavours than can ever be tasted.”

“Think of the most fussy science teacher you ever had. The one who docked your grade if the sixth decimal place in your answer was rounded incorrectly; who tucked in his periodic table T-shirt, corrected every student who said "weight" when he or she meant "mass", and made everyone, including himself, wear goggles even while mixing sugar water. Now try to imagine someone whom your teacher would hate for being anal-retentive. That is the kind of person who works for a bureau of standards and measurement.”
