"The best stories allow readers to discover something new each time they revisit them."

"The past is always tense, the future perfect."

Literature is the expression of a feeling of deprivation, a recourse against a sense of something missing.

Consolidation is inevitable in the shale industry.

读，读，读。读所有东西——垃圾、经典、好的和坏的，看看他们是怎么做的。就像一个当学徒的木匠研究大师一样。读！你会吸收它。然后写。如果它是好的，你会发现。如果不好，就把它扔出窗外。

"The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper."
