Democracy... while it lasts is more bloody than either aristocracy or monarchy. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide.

There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written.

The world is a complicated place, and I try to reflect that in my writing.

在我看来，如果你或我必须在两种思想或行动之间做出选择，我们应该记住我们的死亡，并努力生活，使我们的死亡不会给世界带来任何快乐。
