你不能只是坐在那里等待别人给你那个金色的梦想。你必须走出去,为自己实现它。
You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream. You've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself.
你或许无法控制发生在你身上的所有事情,但你可以决定不被它们打倒。
A writer's life is a highly vulnerable, almost naked activity. We don't have to weep about that. The writer makes his choice and is stuck with it. But it is true to say that you are open to all the winds, some of them icy indeed. You are out on your own, out on a limb. You find no shelter, no protection — unless you lie — in which case of course you have constructed your own protection and, it could be argued, become a politician.
The world is not something to be understood, but something to be experienced.
我们都在寻找某样东西,但我们并不总是知道那是什么。
