A writer must be stubborn, must have a vocation of sacrifice, and must accept that literature is a very cruel mistress.

自身无灾无病，感受不到快乐，等到生病卧床，才了解到无灾无病的快乐；家中平安无事，感受不到快乐，等到祸事临头，才体会到平安无事的快乐。

The biggest risk is not taking any risk. In a world that’s changing quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.

坏人活着是为了吃与喝，而好人却是为了活着才吃与喝。

小说是一面镜子，不仅反映世界，还反映作家的灵魂。

最好的故事是那些让你感觉你属于的故事。
