Poetry may make us from time to time a little more aware of the deeper, unnamed feelings which form the substratum of our being, to which we rarely penetrate; for our lives are mostly a constant evasion of ourselves.

  • -- T. S. Eliot T.S.艾略特

诗歌可以使我们不时地对构成我们存在的基础的更深层的、无名的感情有更多的认识,而我们很少能深入到这种感情中去;因为我们的生活大多是对我们自己的不断逃避。
