我们甚至不知道自己有多强大,直到我们被迫将那种隐藏的力量展现出来。在悲剧、战争、需要的时刻,人们会做出惊人的事情。人类生存和更新的能力是惊人的。
We don't even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward. In times of tragedy, of war, of necessity, people do amazing things. The human capacity for survival and renewal is awesome.
我是个失败的诗人。也许每个小说家都想先写诗,发现自己做不到,然后尝试短篇小说,这是诗歌之后要求最高的形式。如果连这都失败了,他才会转向写小说。
