Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become.

  • -- C. S. Lewis C.S.刘易斯

文学为现实添彩，而不是简单地描述现实。它丰富了日常生活所需和提供的必要能力;在这方面，它灌溉着我们的生活已经变成沙漠的土地。
