I cannot and do not live in the world of discretion, not as a writer, anyway. I would prefer to, I assure you—it would make life easier. But discretion is, unfortunately, not for novelists.
我不能也不愿生活在谨慎的世界里,至少作为作家不行。我向你保证,我宁愿如此——那样生活会更容易。但不幸的是,谨慎不适合小说家。
一切的成功都依赖于直觉,即以一种事后证明是正确的方式看待事物的能力,尽管在当下无法确定。
The world is full of stories, but the stories are all one.
The best way to invest is to look at what’s happening in the real world and invest accordingly.
