There have been times when I reread - or at least leafed through - something because I'd sent a copy to a friend, and what usually happened was that I noticed dozens and dozens of clumsy phrases I wished I could rewrite.

  • -- Peter Straub 特劳布

有好几次，因为给朋友发了一份邮件，我又重读了一遍，或者至少是草草翻阅了一遍，而通常发生的情况是，我注意到一堆又一堆笨拙的短语，真希望我能重写一遍。
