"I don't believe in writer's block. I believe in laziness."

I like to be a free spirit. Some don’t like that, but that’s the way I am.

"The present is a fragile bridge between the past and the future."

The only sensible ends of literature are, first, the pleasurable toil of writing; second, the gratification of one's family and friends; and lastly, the solid cash.

幸福不是你为未来推迟的东西，而是你为当下设计的东西。

——《在广州中国国民党恳亲大会的演说》（1923年10月15日）

I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
