You don't love because: you love despite; not for the virtues, but despite the faults.

What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.

世界是你内心的投射。你抱怨生活不公，往往是因为内心失衡；你觉得世界美好，是因为你心中有光。改变心态，就能改变你看世界的角度。

"在阿拉伯世界，小说不仅是艺术，更是一种社会责任的承担。"

If you're changing the world, you're working on important things. You're excited to get up in the morning.

幸福不是现成的东西。它来自你自己的行动。

我总是试图在我描绘的角色中找到真相。

The important thing in life is not victory but combat； it is not to have vanquished but to have fought well.
