把这一句，留给此刻的你
You say that you hope I will be recognized as the best novelist of my generation. I want you to know now and know completely that that would mean to me absolutely nothing.
你说你希望我能被公认为我们这一代最好的小说家。我想让你们现在就知道，并且完全知道，那对我来说毫无意义。
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。
We are valued in this world at the rate we desire to be valued.
在这个世界上，我们被重视的程度取决于我们希望被重视的程度。
It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.
我花了四年时间才画得像拉斐尔，却花了一辈子时间才画得像个孩子。
We always learn more from the losing than the winning.
我们从失败中学到的总是比从胜利中学到的多。
