The writer's only responsibility is to his art. He will be completely ruthless if he is a good one... If a writer has to rob his mother, he will not hesitate; the "Ode on a Grecian Urn" is worth any number of old ladies.
作家的唯一责任是对他的艺术负责。如果他是个好作家，他会完全无情...如果一个作家必须抢劫他的母亲，他不会犹豫；
To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.
要是你干涉别人的婚姻，你可能失去一个朋友，但却得到他的妻子。
Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.
