With no matter what human being, taken individually, I always find reasons for concluding that sorrow and misfortune do not suit him; either because he seems too mediocre for anything so great, or, on the contrary, too precious to be destroyed.

不管他是什么人，从个人角度看，我总能找到理由得出这样的结论:悲伤和不幸不适合他;要么因为他看起来太平庸，无法成就如此伟大的事业，要么恰恰相反，因为他太珍贵，无法毁灭。
