I think that cars today are almost the exact equivalent of the great Gothic cathedrals; I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object.

  • -- Roland Barthes 罗兰·巴特斯

我认为今天的汽车几乎和哥特式大教堂一模一样;我指的是一个时代的最高创造,由不知名的艺术家满怀激情地构思出来,如果不是被把他们当作纯粹的魔法物品的全体人民所使用,而是被形象所消费。
