每个角色都是作家灵魂的一部分。

What people see on court is another side of me; it’s not me.

I don’t write for the reader; I write for myself.

The novel is an art form that is always in crisis, always on the verge of disappearing, and that's what keeps it alive.

Make up your mind to act decidedly and take the consequences. No good is ever done in this world by hesitation.  

I don't let the world steal my peace.
