If Shakespeare thought comedy worthwhile, that means the rest of us can take a break from tragedy now and then without betraying our calling, even if the modern professional intellectual, a poseur by nature, has yet to discover this.

-- Mark Helprin 普林

如果莎士比亚认为喜剧是值得的，那就意味着我们其他人可以从悲剧中抽身而出，而不会背叛我们的使命，即使现代的专业知识分子，一个天生的装腔作势者，还没有发现这一点。
