Man masters nature not by force but by understanding. This is why science has succeeded where magic failed: because it has looked for no spell to cast on nature.
人驾驭自然不是靠武力，而是靠理智。这就是为什么科学在魔法失败的地方取得了成功:因为它没有向大自然施咒。
A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT
给此刻的你，一点向前的力量。
关于学习、善意与成长，读一句，再想一想。
For me, as for most novelists, every genuine imaginative event begins down there, with the facts, with the specific, and not with the philosophical, the ideological, or the abstract.
对我来说，就像大多数小说家一样，每一个真正富有想象力的事件都是从那里开始的，从事实开始，从具体开始，而不是从哲学、意识形态或抽象开始。
If the material is inspiring and motivates you, then it doesn't really matter what it is.
如果材料是鼓舞人心的，激励你，那么它是什么并不重要。
