写小说并不仅仅是一次跨越边境的购物之旅，而是在想象中的工厂、街道和大教堂里度过数小时甚至数年的时间。

Worry is most apt to ride you ragged not when you are in action, but when the day's work is done. Your imagination can run riot then ... your mind is like a motor operating without its load.
忧虑最容易使你疲惫不堪，不是在你行动的时候，而是在一天的工作结束的时候。你的想象力可能会失控……你的大脑就像一台没有负载的马达。
James L. Mursell
詹姆斯·L·穆塞尔
What a man accomplishes in a day depends upon the way in which he approaches his tasks. When we accept tough jobs as a challenge to our ability and wade into them with joy and enthusiasm, miracles can happen. When we do our work with a dynamic, conquering spirit, we get things done.
一个人一天的成就取决于他完成任务的方式。当我们接受困难的工作作为对我们能力的挑战，并带着喜悦和热情投入其中，奇迹就会发生。当我们以一种积极进取的精神工作时，我们就能把事情做好。

The test of a vocation is the love of the drudgery it involves.

A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.
一个人的作品不过是一次缓慢的跋涉，通过艺术的弯路，重新发现那两三个伟大而简单的形象，在他们面前，他的心第一次打开了。
Albert Camus

You have to be generous if you want to spend your time making someone else dinner. Even if you're charging, you're still giving.
如果你想把时间花在为别人做饭上，你必须慷慨大方。即使你在收费，你仍然在付出。
