Stagnation

人不快樂的原因就是把自己關在一個跑不掉的地方,
我們都熟悉自己的城市 而每一個城市都有它的定律和固執,拒絕改變 ;
當我們得要為了這些定律長時間活在其中,就連想像式的逃脫都做不到時,我們就如同在大型監牢的囚犯,一切亦只好在渾濁不清中消耗殆盡。- Tony


My (weak) translation:

The reason people why are unhappy is because they shut themselves in a place they can't break free from. We are all familiar with our towns and cities and every city has its own set structure and routine that we don't have the power to change. When we must live within this routine longterm, without even the ability to imagine an escape, we are like the prisoners in a high-security penitentiary, wasting away in an incapacitated daze.
