It is not true that suffering ennobles the character; happiness does that sometimes, but suffering for the most part, makes men petty and vindictive.
苦难并不能使品格高尚;幸福有时能做到这一点,但苦难在很大程度上使人心胸狭窄,产生报复心。
W. Somerset Maugham
威廉·萨默塞特·毛姆
Choose beliefs that serve your soul - choose beliefs that serve the grander dream of who you choose to be.
选择那些服务于你灵魂的信念——选择那些服务于你所选择成为的更伟大的梦想的信念。

One of the things that writing has taught me is that fiction has a life of its own. Fictional places are sometimes more real than the view from our bedroom window. Fictional people can sometimes become as close to us as our loved ones.
写作教会我的一件事是,小说有自己的生命。虚构的地方有时比我们卧室窗外的景色更真实。虚构的人有时会变得和我们所爱的人一样亲近。

Many a secret that cannot be pried out by curiosity can be drawn out by indifference.
许多不能被好奇心揭开的秘密,可以被冷漠揭开。
