Under adversity, under oppression, the words begin to fail, the easy words begin to fail. In order to convey things accurately, the human being is almost forced to find the most precise words possible, which is a precondition for literature.

  • -- Rita Dove 丽塔·达夫

在逆境中,在压迫下,语言开始失败,简单的语言开始失败。为了准确地表达事物,人类几乎被迫去寻找尽可能精确的词语,这是文学的先决条件。
