"Writing is like breathing for me. I have to do it to live."
写作对我来说就像呼吸。我必须写作才能活下去。
海洋的恩赐是一种特权,而不是一种权利。
The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you are, ever after, secure in your ability to survive. You will never truly know yourself, or the strength of your relationships, until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won, and it has been worth more than any qualification I ever earned.
