A novel is a long answer to a question you can’t quite formulate.

The best ideas often come from the quietest voices in the room.

成功并不是终点，失败并不是终结，只有勇气才是永恒。

The only thing standing between you and your goal is the story you keep telling yourself as to why you can't achieve it.

——在北京蒙藏统一政治改良会欢迎会的演说，1912年9月1日

"Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides."

"Every poem is a love poem, even when it's about loss."

理解世界的复杂性是我们走向智慧的关键。
