We are all searching for something, whether we admit it or not, and that search defines us.

I’m a great believer in solving hard problems by using a checklist. You need to get all the likely and unlikely answers before you; otherwise it’s easy to miss something important.

The mind， both in so far as it understands， and in so far as it imagines， is passive.

写作是探索我们内心未知的方式。
