我觉得做人很失败---在艺术品原料店打工，跟自己的祖母一起住，还上着夜校。

I felt like a failure—working in an art-supply store, living with my grandmother, going to night school.

平淡，简远，纯粹，一直是我对艺术的追求，也是我做人做事的风格。

Plain, simple and pure, is my pursuit to art and my style.

有些人很可怕，有些人则让人如沐春风，而所有这些中年同事让我了解到身为前辈的基本艺术，秘诀就是：把无知的初级员工当做人来对待。

Some were awful, some wonderful, and combined they taught me the essential art of being an older colleague. The secret: treat ignorant junior employees as humans.
