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；
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.
孔子说：“祭奠别人的先人，是谄媚；遇到符合道义的事不敢做，是懦夫。”
The past is never dead. It's not even past.
You can dream, create, design and build the most wonderful place in the world...but it requires people to make the dream a reality.
We can't just farm fish; we must farm ecosystems.
Writing is a way of being in the world, a way of seeing it and understanding it.
