Not to discriminate every moment some passionate attitude in those about us, and in the very brilliancy of their gifts some tragic dividing on their ways, is, on this short day of frost and sun, to sleep before evening.

  • -- Walter Horatio Pater 佩特

在这短暂的霜冻和烈日当空的日子里,不要在我们周围的人身上每时每刻都有一种激情洋溢的态度,不要在他们才华横溢的时候,在他们的人生道路上有一种悲凉的分裂,不要在黄昏前入睡。
