让我能够做出人生重大抉择的最主要办法是,记住生命随时都有可能结束。因为几乎所有的东西——所有对自身之外的希求、所有的尊严、所有对困窘和失败的恐惧——在死亡来临时都将不复存在,只剩下真正重要的东西。记住自己随时都会死去,这是我所知道的防止患得患失的最好方法。你已经一无所有了,还有什么理由不跟着自己的感觉走呢。
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything—all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure—these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
我试图通过我的作品来揭示人类的复杂性。
I'm not a person who likes to be like the rest.
唯一存在的限制是你脑海中的限制。
永远不要低估合作的力量——伟大的事情很少独自完成。
Progress is not inevitable; it is the result of deliberate choices and actions.
To travel is to write, and to write is to travel.
All things are possible until they are proved impossible – and even the impossible may only be so, as of now.
我不喜欢我的声音。我不喜欢我的外表。我不喜欢我走路的样子。我不喜欢我的表演方式。我真的这样认为。所以,你看,我不喜欢我自己。
家就是当你不得不去那里时,他们必须接纳你的地方。
任何有价值的人生都是一个持续的寓言。
