"历史是一个轮子,因为人性的本质是根本不变的。"
— George R.R. Martin
Simplified Meaning:
People tend to act in similar ways throughout time, so the same kinds of events happen again and again. This idea can be compared to a wheel that keeps turning, showing how our actions, choices, and mistakes often repeat. For example, wars have occurred throughout history because human conflicts and desires don't change much, even as societies evolve. Learning from past events can help us avoid making the same mistakes. By understanding that human nature remains constant, we can predict patterns and make better decisions for the future. This perspective encourages us to study history so we can shape a better outcome for ourselves and others.
