A farmer's wisdom often surpasses the latest technology - we must learn to listen.

诗歌是一种理解世界的方式。

I'm not afraid to say what I feel, and I'm not afraid to be who I am.

我知道我自己打得像坨屎一样，但你们不知道我为了让自己打得不那么像坨屎，付出了多少努力。

The only way to do great work is to love what you do.

The only obsession everyone wants: 'love.' People think that in falling in love they make themselves whole? The Platonic union of souls? I think otherwise. I think you're whole before you begin. And the love fractures you. You're whole, and then you're cracked open.

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.

The novel is a mirror that reflects the world, but it is also a window that opens onto new possibilities.
