When I have been unhappy, I have heard an opera... and it seemed the shrieking of winds; when I am happy, a sparrow's chirp is delicious to me. But it is not the chirp that makes me happy, but I that make it sweet.

  • -- John Ruskin 约翰·罗斯金

当我不开心的时候，我听到了一场歌剧……那仿佛是风的尖叫;当我快乐的时候，麻雀的啁啾对我来说是美味的。但使我快乐的不是啁啾，而是我使它甜蜜。
