I don’t know any wise person (in any field of endeavor) who doesn’t read all the time—none, zero. You’d be amazed at how much Warren reads—at how much I read. My children laugh at me. They think I’m a book with a couple legs sticking out.
我这辈子遇到的聪明人（来自各行各业的聪明人）没有不每天阅读的——没有，一个都没有。沃伦读书之多，我读书之多，可能会让你感到吃惊。我的孩子们都笑话我。他们觉得我是一本长了两条腿的书。
The novel is a very democratic form. It allows for the expression of many voices, many points of view.
写作是一种保存短暂事物的方式。
自由确实珍贵；如此珍贵以至于必须谨慎配给。
