文学是社会的镜子，反映其美德与恶习，希望与恐惧。
"Literature is the mirror of society, reflecting its virtues and vices, its hopes and fears."
道德的人和荣誉的人之间的区别在于，后者即使在不光彩的行为奏效时也会感到后悔。
The meaning of earthly existence lies not, as we have grown used to thinking, in prospering but in the development of the soul.
我不相信有罪恶的快乐——如果你喜欢某样东西，就享受它。
