The writer’s duty is to rebel, to resist, to never be complacent.

So that morning in 1962 I told myself: Let everyone else call your idea crazy . . . just keep going. Don’t stop. Don’t even think about stopping until you get there, and don’t give much thought to where “there” is. Whatever comes, just don’t stop.

We have to be prepared to take some risks, but they must be calculated risks.

伟大不是环境的结果。事实证明，伟大在很大程度上是一种有意识的选择。
