The human body is not a thing or substance, given, but a continuous creation. The human body is an energy system which is never a complete structure; never static; is in perpetual inner self-construction and self-destruction; we destroy in order to make it new.

  • -- Norman O. Brown 诺曼·奥布朗

人的身体不是一个物体或物质,而是一个持续不断的创造。人体是一个能量系统,它从来就不是一个完整的结构;从来没有静态;永远处于自我建构和自我毁灭之中;我们破坏是为了让它焕然一新。
