“What lies at the far reaches of the universe? This is a question that science has yet to answer, but most young people in China today already have an answer. According to them, at the end of the universe is not the Milky Way, the Andromeda Galaxy or the Canes Venatici Constellation, but a government job. 宇宙的尽头究竟是什么？这是一个科学界尚未解答的问题，但如今中国的大多数年轻人已经有了答案。他们认为，宇宙的尽头不是银河系，不是仙女座，也不是猎犬座，而是一份体制内工作。”——摘录自《经济学人》对余华的访谈
