I don't want to be a legend. I want to be a memory in people's hearts.

I wanted to sell a million records, and I sold a million records. I wanted to go platinum; I went platinum. I’ve been working nonstop since I was 15. I don’t even know how to chill out.

Every book is a quotation; and every house is a quotation out of all forests, and mines, and stone quarries; and every man is a quotation from all his ancestors.

写作就是要关注那些大多数人忽略的事物。

This is what we call love. When you are loved, you can do anything in creation. When you are loved, there's no need at all to understand what's happening, because everything happens within you.

The thing about human beings is that they're capable of anything.

Don't be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again.

I believe in the power of literature to change the way we see the world.
