Lolita《洛丽塔》
《洛丽塔》卖出了5000万册,是一个永恒的、受人尊敬的经典小说,但一开始不得不忍受出版社的无数次退稿:
第一封退稿信:
“本社花了很长时间决定不出版纳博科夫的《洛丽塔》,你和我都知道我们不可能出版。书稿你想要回吗?我想你不要了吧?如果这样,我们就自行处理了。不过,请告诉我。不知道有没有出版商愿意买?”
第二封退稿信:
“应该给精神分析学家读读这本书,很可能已经这么做过了,小说里面包含一些优美的章节,但是它过于令人作呕,即使对于最开明的弗洛伊德学者来说也是如此…我请求将其埋葬一千年。”
Vladimir Nabokov 纳博科夫
Russian-American writer
April 22, 1899 —July 2, 1977

Don't quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
请别放弃
情势时而不顺利,此乃意中之事,
举步维艰向上时,
口袋空空,债台高筑时,
想要微笑却得叹息时,
忧虑重重压住时,
必要之时请休息,
但你别放弃.
埃德加·阿尔伯特·盖斯特
(Edgar Albert Guest, 1881 – 1959)是20世纪上半叶一位高产的美国诗人,以“人民诗人”著称。

Life is queer with its twists and turns.
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out; Don' give up though the pace seems slow-
You may sueceed with another blow.
命运起伏多古怪,
尽管有时会知道,
(意指有时我们也没了解到命运多变性质)
只要坚持就胜利
有人却转身离去
脚步放慢没关系
但请千万别放弃
还差一击就胜利
Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell just how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when yout're hardest hit-
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
反转之间定成败
疑云后面是曙光
距离成功多近
你却从来不自知
也许只在咫尺,也许遥不可及;
即使遭到最重击,也要坚持不放弃
情况变得再糟糕
也要挺住不放弃
