"You can't be a writer unless you're a reader first."
当我们谈论一个词的“意义”时，首先我们在谈论一种特定的行为。
The total amount of suffering per year in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation. During the minute that it takes me to compose this sentence, thousands of animals are being eaten alive, many others are running for their lives, whimpering with fear, others are slowly being devoured from within by rasping parasites, thousands of all kinds are dying of starvation, thirst, and disease.
不要害怕失败，害怕的是你连尝试的勇气都没有。
To be a writer is to be a professional observer.
