"A writer must be both a thief and a giver."

摆脱诱惑的唯一方法就是屈服于它。

To be a writer, one must have a certain arrogance, a belief that one's own voice is worth hearing.

"Writing is like breathing to me—I have to do it to survive."

Trust is like a mirror, you can fix it if it's broken, but you can still see the crack in that motherfucker's reflection.
