One has to accept pain as a condition of existence. One has to court doubt and darkness as the cost of knowing. One needs a will stubborn in conflict, but apt always to the total acceptance of every consequence of living and dying.

  • -- Morris West 莫里斯·韦斯特

一个人必须接受痛苦是生存的条件。一个人必须追求怀疑和黑暗作为了解的代价。一个人需要在冲突中固执的意志,但总是倾向于完全接受生与死的每一个后果。
