Our present time is indeed a criticizing and critical time, hovering between the wish, and the inability to believe. Our complaints are like arrows shot up into the air at no target: and with no purpose they only fall back upon our own heads and destroy ourselves.

  • -- William Temple 坦普尔

我们现在的时代确实是一个批判和批判的时代,徘徊在愿望和无法相信之间。我们的怨言,就像射在空中没有靶子的箭,徒然落在我们头上,自取灭亡。
