The novel is the most democratic of art forms because it belongs to the reader as much as to the writer.

我不需要别人的认可。我知道自己的价值。

Color is the keyboard, the eyes are the harmonies, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another, to cause vibrations in the soul.

The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.

慈善始于家庭，正义始于邻里。
