智慧的终极目标是梦想足够高远，以至于在追寻过程中忘却这个梦想本身。

The writer cannot be a mere storyteller; he cannot be a mere teacher; he cannot be a mere entertainer. He must be all of these and more.

I can never be safe; I always try and go against the grain. As soon as I accomplish one thing, I just set a higher goal. That's how I've gotten to where I am.

I think that's the single best piece of advice: constantly think about how you could be doing things better and questioning yourself.

写作是一种乐观的行为。如果你觉得它不重要，你就不会费心去做。
