Art is not a mirror to reflect reality, but a hammer with which to shape it.

创造东西真的很难。你必须非常在乎它，才能克服所有的失望和挫折。

犯罪小说是探索人性阴暗面的完美载体。

If you're alive, you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, you've got to make a lot of noise, because life is the very opposite of death.

The key to performance is elegance, not battalions of special cases.

Never stop learning, because the world never stops changing.

挑战是伪装的机会，拥抱它们。

好的小说告诉我们角色的真相；伟大的小说告诉我们自己的真相。
