"To understand a society, look at its trash."

生活是一系列的时刻，有些转瞬即逝，有些永恒。

The problem is, if you really believe in a society where those who merit to get to the top, get to the top, you'll also, by implication, and in a far more nasty way, believe in a society where those who deserve to get to the bottom also get to the bottom and stay there. I nother words, your position in life comes to seem not accidental, but merited and deserved. And that makes failure seem much more crushing.

"In my novels, I try to delve into the darkest corners of the human psyche."

I'm not a child, I'm an adult.
