Who knows for what we live, and struggle, and die? Wise men write many books, in words too hard to understand. But this, the purpose of our lives, the end of all our struggle, is beyond all human wisdom.

  • -- Alan Paton 阿兰·帕顿

谁知道我们为了什么而生存、挣扎和死亡?智者写了许多书,书中的文字太难理解了。但是,这是我们生活的目的,是我们一切斗争的终点,是人类智慧所无法企及的。
