Giving presents is a talent; to know what a person wants, to know when and how to get it, to give it lovingly and well. Unless a character possesses this talent there is no moment more annihilating to ease than that in which a present is received and given.

  • -- Pamela Glenconner 帕梅拉·格伦康纳

送礼物是一种天赋;要知道一个人想要什么,知道何时以及如何得到它,要充满爱心地把它给予他人。除非一个角色拥有这种天赋,否则没有比接受和给予礼物更容易毁灭的时刻了。
