"To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance."

我一直是这个世界上的陌生人，一个访客，一个游客。

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.

生活就是斗争。

对真理的热爱就体现在：知道怎样去发现和珍惜每一件事物的好处。
