Here's an insight that I've had about success: You can't be successful at everything. We hear a lot of talk about work-life balance. Nonsense. You can't have it all. You can't. So any vision of success has to admit what it's losing out on, where the element of loss is. And I think any wise life will accept, as I say, that there is going to be an element where we're not succeeding.
I am only resolved to act in that manner, which will, in my own opinion, constitute my happiness, without reference to you, or to any person so wholly unconnected with me.
我步入丛林,因为我希望生活有意义。我希望活得深刻,吸取生命中所有精华。把非生命的一切都击溃。以免,当我生命终结,发现自己从没有活过。
当我们在没有危险的情况下征服时,我们的胜利就没有荣耀。
"A writer's duty is to tell the truth, no matter how painful."
The writer must be a person who is willing to fail.
