La ficción es más real que la realidad, porque la ficción nos permite ver lo que la realidad oculta.
虚构比现实更真实，因为虚构让我们看到现实隐藏的东西。
The truth is not always the best story.
Language is the only tool we have to make sense of the world, and yet it is always inadequate.
就像太阳在落山前映射在河口上，有无数的亮点在闪闪发光。
The story is not in the plot; the plot is what happens, the story is what it means.
The act of reading is an act of empathy, a way to step into someone else's shoes.
