When I started writing full time I had not long stopped being a teacher and when at last I had a full day to write, I would put music on and wonder to myself - am I allowed to do this? Then I thought: 'I am control of this and no one is telling me what I can do.'

  • -- Roddy Doyle 罗迪·道尔

当我开始全职写作时,我不久就不再是一名教师,当我终于有一整天的时间来写作时,我就会放着音乐对自己说:我可以这样做吗?然后我想:‘我能控制一切,没有人告诉我能做什么。’
