读书贵在能有疑问，有疑问方能增进对事物的了解。

我不是一个完美的人。我从未声称自己是。

写作就是重写——魔法发生在编辑中。

I have to be alone very often. I’d be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That’s how I refuel.

The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, peculiar to myself and to a few other solitary men, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence.

译文：即使处在平安的环境，也要时刻想到可能会有突如其来的危险。

人是他的选择。
