Yet it is in this loneliness that the deepest activities begin. It is here that you discover act without motion, labor that is profound repose, vision in obscurity, and, beyond all desire, a fulfillment whose limits extend to infinity.

  • -- Thomas Merton 托马斯·默顿

然而,正是在这种孤独中,最深刻的活动才开始。正是在这里,你发现了没有运动的行动,那是深沉的休息的劳动,在朦胧中看到的远景,以及超越所有欲望的满足,它的极限延伸到无限。
