陌生人与我们亲近，因为我们在他们和我们自己之间感受到民族、社会、职业或普遍人性的共同特征。他们与我们疏远，因为这些共同特征超出了他们或我们，并且只因为它们连接了许多人而连接我们。
The stranger is close to us, insofar as we feel between him and ourselves common features of a national, social, occupational, or generally human, nature. He is far from us, insofar as these common features extend beyond him or us, and connect us only because they connect a great many people.
过去是你记得的、想象中记得的、说服自己记得的或假装记得的一切。
En la oscuridad, las palabras son la luz que nos guía.
They are not monuments, but footprints. A monument only says, 'At least I got this far,' while a footprint says, 'This is where I was when I moved again.'
