The novel is a mirror that reflects the complexities of human nature and society.

The best way to measure how much you've grown isn't by inches or the number of laps you can now run around the track, or even your grade point average - though those things are important, to be sure.It's what you've done with your time, how you've chosen to spend your days, and whom you've touched this year. That, to me, is the greatest measure of success.

诗歌是将快乐与真理结合的艺术。

虽然身份卑微，但却能不失道义；虽然生活贫穷，但却能廉洁自守。

If you don’t get a miracle, you can still be a miracle for someone else.
