The world is a place of the living, and the dead have no place in it. The dead are nothing. They are not even a memory. They are forgotten. And the living, too, will be forgotten.
熄灭了吧,熄灭了吧,短促的烛光!人生不过是一个行走的影子,一个在舞台上指手划脚的拙劣的伶人,登场片刻,就在无声无臭中悄然退下;它是一个愚人所讲的故事,充满着喧哗和骚动,却找不到一点意义。
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.
