I write in order to find out what I truly know and how I really feel about certain things. Writing requires me to go much deeper into my thoughts and memories than conversation does. Writing provides the solitude necessary to reflect on being in this world.

我写作是为了找出我真正知道什么,以及我对某些事情的真实感受。写作需要我比谈话更深入地思考和记忆。写作提供了反思这个世界所必需的孤独。
