Greatness is not this wonderful, esoteric, elusive, god-like feature that only the special among us will ever taste. It's something that truly exists in all of us.

Stories you read when you're the right age never quite leave you. You may forget who wrote them or what the story was called. Sometimes you'll forget precisely what happened, but if a story touches you it will stay with you, haunting the places in your mind that you rarely ever visit.

"The truth is rarely pure and never simple."

过去从未死去，甚至从未过去。

乌鸦聚集在一起，虽然看上去很和好，实际上并不亲密；不慎重地结交朋友，虽似牢固，终必破裂。
