I don’t ask writers about their work habits. I really don’t care. Joyce Carol Oates says somewhere that when writers ask each other what time they start working and when they finish and how much time they take for lunch, they’re actually trying to find out, ‘Is he as crazy as I am?’ I don’t need that question answered.
我不问作家关于他们的工作习惯。我真的不在乎。乔伊斯·卡罗尔·欧茨在某个地方说过,当作家们互相询问他们什么时候开始工作,什么时候结束,以及午餐花多长时间时,他们实际上是在试图找出,“他和我一样疯狂吗?”我不需要这个问题的答案。
艺术是一种驾驭世界混乱的方式。
海洋是伟大的统一者,因为所有的生命都来自它,并最终回归于它。
文学是表达无法表达之物的艺术。
I don’t want to be a celebrity. I just want to be a singer.
The only way to have a good day is to start it with a positive attitude.
