The breaking wave and the muscle as it contracts obey the same law. Delicate line gathers the body's total strength in a bold balance. Shall my soul meet so severe a curve, journeying on its way to form?

  • -- Dag Hammarskjold 达格·哈马舍尔德

断裂波和它收缩时的肌肉遵循同样的规律。精致的线条汇集了身体的全部力量,在一个大胆的平衡。难道我的灵魂会遇到如此严峻的曲线,在它形成的道路上行进吗?
