  • -- Evelyn Waugh 伊芙琳·沃

这是一件奇怪的事情……每一种信仰都承诺有一个天堂，绝对不适合任何有文明品味的人居住。

However mean your life is, meet it and live it: do not shun it and call it hard names. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Things do not change, we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

不论你的生活如何卑贱，你要面对它生活，不要躲避它，更别用恶言咒骂它。视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧。不要麻烦自己去找新的东西，无论是衣服还是朋友。万物不变，是我们在变。卖掉你的衣服，保留你的思想。
