When I read great literature, great drama, speeches, or sermons, I feel that the human mind has not achieved anything greater than the ability to share feelings and thoughts through language.

  • -- James Earl Jones 詹姆斯·厄尔·琼斯

当我阅读伟大的文学作品、伟大的戏剧、演讲或布道时，我觉得人类的心灵除了通过语言来分享情感和思想外，没有取得任何更大的成就。

The mind will say this forever. But I mostly fish rivers these dayas. In so doing, movement becomes stasis, flux is the constant, and everything flows around, through, and beyond me, escaping ungrasped, unnamed, and unscathed. The river's clean escape does not prevent belief in its reality.

思想会永远这样说。但这些天我主要在河里钓鱼。这样做，运动变成了停滞，流动是不变的，一切都在我周围流动，穿过我，超越我，逃离我没有抓住的，没有命名的，没有受伤的。这条河的脱险并不妨碍人们对它的真实性的信念。
