There is nothing waste, nothing sterile, nothing dead in the universe; no chaos, no confusions, except in appearance.
宇宙中无物浪费，无物贫瘠，无物死亡；无混沌，无混乱，除非表象如此。
I'm a failed poet. Maybe every novelist wants to write poetry first, finds he can't and then tries the short story which is the most demanding form after poetry. And failing at that, only then does he turn to the novel.
时间是你的朋友；冲动是你的敌人。
文字的力量在于它们创造世界的能力。
