I had a friend once told me he was afraid that the Kinmen bowl would be too small for a goldfish as big as me but, as far as I'm concerned, it's one's personal feelings and perceptions that decide the size of a place. Otherwise, after living next the Great Lakes for such a long time Taiwan would have seemed small.
曾有朋友說我回金門，恐怕是「小廟容不了大和尚」；對我而言，土地的大小是用感情來定義，否則，在美國五大湖邊住了好多年，台灣也顯得小了。
