The creative act is not pure. History evidences it. Sociology extracts it. The writer loses Eden, writes to be read and comes to realize that he is answerable to no one.

The city is like a great palimpsest, a manuscript that has been written and rewritten over the centuries.

每天都在跳曳步舞

The poem is a small homeland.

Your self-worth is determined by you. You don't have to depend on someone telling you who you are.

一个人接受命运及其带来的所有痛苦的方式……为他的生命增添了更深的意义。
