The chief beauty about time is that you cannot waste it in advance. The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoiled, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your life. You can turn over a new leaf every hour if you choose.

作家的职责是讲述真相，无论多么痛苦。

Fearless is not the absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.

出自《抱朴子·广訾》。病到很急的时候就会觉得良医是重要的了，世道动乱的时候就会觉得忠贞的臣子是重要的了。
