There are two men in Tolstoy. He is a mystic and he is also a realist. He is addicted to the practice of a pietism that for all its sincerity is nothing if not vague and sentimental; and he is the most acute and dispassionate of observers, the most profound and earnest student of character and emotion.
托尔斯泰有两个人。他是一个神秘主义者,也是一个现实主义者。他沉迷于一种虔诚的做法,尽管它的真诚是模糊的和感性的;他是最敏锐和冷静的观察者,最深刻和认真的性格和情感的学生。
