Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists.

  • -- Eudora Welty 韦尔蒂

写小说使我对人的一生中未知的东西产生了一种持久的敬意，让我有了一种去哪里寻找线索、如何追随、如何联系的感觉，在错综复杂的世界中找到一条清晰的线。
