It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all doing direct the other way.
这是最幸运的年代，也是最倒霉的年代，这是智慧的年代，也是愚昧的年代；这个时期信仰与怀疑共存，这个时期光明与黑暗共存；这是希望之春，也是失望之冬；人们面前琳琅满目，但又一无所有；我们正直达天堂，我们正直通地狱。
我写作是为了理解发生在我身上的事，将羞耻转化为语言。
智者的观点是一样的，愚人的观点千差万别。
我们必须挑战现状，并不断寻求更好的做事方式。
The more we study the more we discover our ignorance.
If you can't laugh at yourself, you're missing the best joke of all.
在任何情况下都要寻找积极的一面。总有一些值得感激的事情。
成为作家意味着不断探索。
