I'm finding, as I get older, that I'm not much of a believer in redemption. I mean, I believe in redemption in real life - redemption does happen, and it's cool when it does - but I find myself getting leery of my desire for it in stories (especially my own).

  • -- George Saunders 山德斯

随着年龄的增长,我发现自己并不太相信救赎。我的意思是,我相信现实生活中的救赎——救赎确实会发生,当它发生的时候很酷——但我发现自己对自己在故事中对它的渴望越来越怀疑(尤其是我自己的故事)。
