If people choose to live their life in a way that does not confront the more troubling aspects of their experience, that's fine, if it works for them. But it will probably make them uncomfortable if they come up against somebody like me. So they just shouldn't! They shouldn't read my work!

  • -- Joyce Maynard 乔伊斯·梅纳德

如果人们选择以一种不去面对他们经历中更麻烦的方面的方式生活,如果这种方式对他们有效,那也没什么。但如果他们遇到像我这样的人,可能会感到不舒服。所以他们不应该这么做!他们不应该读我的作品!
