对承认的渴望,灵魂中的激情部分,是灵魂中最基本的人性部分。
The desire for recognition, the thymotic part of the soul, is the most fundamentally human part of the soul.
"I'm not perfect, but I'm perfectly me."
对待心中的欲念,放纵即有所损,所以关键在于忍;改过向善,努力即有所助益,所以关键在于悔。
People are curious. A few people are. They will be driven to find things out, even trivial things. They will put things together, knowing all along that they may be mistaken. You see them going around with notebooks, scraping the dirt off gravestones, reading microfilm, just in the hope of seeing this trickle in time, making a connection, rescuing one thing from the rubbish.
