把这一句，留给此刻的你

People think that because a novel's invented, it isn't true. Exactly the reverse is the case. Biography and memoirs can never be wholly true, since they cannot include every conceivable circumstance of what happened. The novel can do that.

人们认为因为小说是虚构的，所以它不是真的。恰恰相反。传记和回忆录永远不可能是完全真实的，因为它们不可能包含所发生事情的每一个可以想象的情况。小说可以做到这一点。
