一个人成熟的速度与他能忍受的尴尬成正比。

"The great advantage of being a writer is that you can spy on people. You're there, listening to every word, but part of you is observing. Everything is useful to a writer, every scrap, even the longest and most boring of luncheon parties."

在阅读的寂静中，可以听到人类最响亮的声音。

真正做好一件事的唯一方法就是热爱你所做的事情。
