"人们总是在喊他们想要创造一个更美好的未来。那不是真的。未来是一个冷漠的空洞,对任何人都没有吸引力。"
— Jose Saramago
Simplified Meaning:
Many people say they want to make the future better, but often they don’t really care. They might just be saying it because it sounds good or because others expect them to say it. The future is like an empty space that doesn't seem important to them right now. For example, think about how people promise to take care of the environment for future generations but continue to litter or waste resources because it’s easier for them at the moment. If someone truly wants to improve the future, they need to take small steps today, like recycling or using less plastic. This quote is a reminder to be sincere about our intentions and to match our actions with our words.
