小说的艺术就是无处不在的艺术。

The very shaping of history now outpaces the ability of men to orient themselves in accordance with cherished values. And which values? Even when they do not panic, men often sense that older ways of feeling and thinking have collapsed and that newer beginnings are ambiguous to the point of moral stasis.

真相如同太阳；你可以暂时遮蔽它，但它不会消失。

在天堂里，所有有趣的人都缺席。
