The only sensible ends of literature are, first, the pleasurable toil of writing; second, the gratification of one's family and friends; and lastly, the solid cash.
文学的唯一明智目的是,首先是写作的愉快劳动;其次是家人和朋友的满足;最后是实实在在的金钱。
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.
