我没有任何特别的秘诀（用于开发新的证明）……这就是为什么做研究既具有挑战性又具有吸引力的原因。这就像在丛林中迷路，试图利用你能收集到的所有知识来想出一些新的技巧，并且如果运气好的话，你可能会找到出路。
I don't have any particular recipe [for developing new proofs] ... It is the reason why doing research is challenging as well as attractive. It's like being lost in a jungle and trying to use all the knowledge that you can gather to come up with some new tricks, and with some luck you might find a way out.
【译文】圣人的道理，平坦得就像大路一样，学者苦于不能得其人门的要领。
我会拼命地打好每一场球，就如那是我最后的一场！
最好的创新方式是拥抱失败。
