"The past is always present in the present."

"The power of a story lies in its ability to transport us to another world, to make us feel, to make us think, and to make us grow."

小说的力量不在于其情节，而在于其唤起与读者自身经历共鸣的情感的能力。

译文：即便我改变了外在的样子，人们依然难以领悟真谛，那些如同行尸走肉般生活的人，我并不为之忧虑。我要尽情地回归质朴纯真，哪怕被人嘲笑不够潇洒风流。

Every case is a story, and every story has a beginning, a middle, and an end.
