I stand up for what I believe in, and I don’t worry about what others think.

The novel is the art of making the private public, the personal universal.

Every risk is worth taking as long as it's for a good cause, and contributes to a good life.

You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait. Do not even wait, be quite still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

未来は、過去の積み重ねでできている。

我明白，你对安排给你的生活很不满。但你知道，最终我们都要接受现实。现实就是，我是人，而你不是；我说了算，你说了不算。
