To seek the timeless way we must first know the quality without a name. There is a central quality which is the root criterion of life and spirit in a man, a town, a building, or a wilderness. This quality is objective and precise, but it cannot be named.

  • -- Christopher Alexander 克里斯托弗·亚历山大

要寻求永恒的道路，我们必须先知道没有名字的品质。在一个人、一座城市、一座建筑或一片荒野中，有一种核心品质是生命和精神的根本准则。这种品质是客观和精确的，但却无法命名。
