A poet must be like a tree, rooted in his native soil, drawing nourishment from it to bear fruit.
诗人必须像一棵树，扎根于故土，从中汲取养分才能结出果实。
重要的事情往往难以启齿，因为言语会缩小其重要性；要让素未平生的人在意你生命中的美好事物，原本就不容易。
"Memory is a strange thing. It doesn’t work like I thought it did. It’s not a film you can replay. It’s more like a story you tell yourself, and the story changes every time."
We are all stories in the end.
The mistral may howl, but the olive tree bends without breaking.
"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
