No one is fit to judge a book until he has rounded Cape Horn in a sailing vessel, until he has bumped into two or three icebergs, until he has been lost in the sands of the desert, until he has spent a few years in the House of the Dead.

-- Van Wyck Brooks 范·威克·布鲁克斯

没有人适合判断一本书,直到他在一艘帆船绕过合恩角,直到他遇到两个或三个冰山,直到他已经迷失在沙漠的沙,直到他花了几年的死者。
