My first name - I have no middle name - was chosen by my father, as he told me, on that solitary walk in the forested hills. He selected it from a verse of the seventh chapter of Isaiah; there was no Immanuel among our ancestors known to him.

  • -- Immanuel Velikovsky 伊曼纽尔·维利科夫斯基

我的名字——我没有中间的名字——是我的父亲,正如他告诉我的那样,在那片森林覆盖的山丘上独自行走时,选择了我的名字。他从以赛亚书第七章的一节中拣选了这句话;我们的祖宗中,没有以马内利所认识的。
