把这一句，留给此刻的你

Recognition of this kinship with the rest of the universe is necessary for understanding him, but his essential nature is defined by qualities found nowhere else, not by those he has in common with apes, fishes, trees, fire, or anything other than himself.

认识到这种与宇宙其他部分的亲缘关系是理解他的必要条件，但他的本质是由其他地方所没有的品质所决定的，而不是由他与猿、鱼、树、火或任何东西的共同之处所决定的。
