救已败之事者,如驭临崖之马,休轻策一鞭;图垂成之功者,如挽上滩之舟,莫少停一棹。
挽救失败的事,就好像驾驭悬崖边的马,不能轻拍一鞭。对于即将成功的事,就好像拉船上沙滩,不能少停一桨。
"Writing is a way of making the world more bearable."
The more we understand individual things, the more we understand God.
The artist must be a servant of the sacred.
"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you."
