一切无意义
The world went on, and no one was a penny the worse for all that wretchedness. I had an idea that Dirk, a man of greater emotional reactions than depth of feeling, would soon forget; and Blanche’s life, begun with who knows what bright hopes and what dreams, might just as well have never been lived. It all seemed useless and inane.
曾经怀有美好期待的Blanche, 人生还不如没开始过, 一切都是徒劳, 无意义
爱是什么
There is in love a sense of weakness, a desire to protect, and eagerness to do good and to give pleasure—if not unselfishness, at all events a selfishness which marvelously conceals itself; it has in it a certain diffidence.
爱是示弱, 是想保护的愿望, 是成为良善之人, 是给人带来欢愉, 爱是胆怯...
艺术的力量
Wouldn’t it give you a rather pleasing sensation to think of people you didn’t know and had never seen receiving emotions, subtle and passionate, from the work of your hands? Everyone likes power. I can’t imagine a more wonderful exercise of it than to move the souls of men to pity or terror.
没有哪种实践能够比艺术更能触动人的灵魂深处, 使人心生怜悯或畏惧
