作品描述
“这样,从要塞最高的那座塔楼的顶部,我发现要惋惜的不是受苦,不是死在上帝的怀抱里,不是哀悼本身。因为死者得到人们的悼念,要比生者更显而易见,更有力。我明白了人的忧患,我惋惜的是人。我决定治愈他们。我可怜这样的人,黑夜中他在祖屋里醒来,以为在上帝的星空下可以遮风挡雨,突然前面却是一条征途。我禁止有人提出问题,深知不存在可能解渴的回答。那个提问题的人,只是在寻找深渊。”——《要塞》节选
“Thus, standing on the highest tower of the citadel, I perceived that we need not lament suffering, or death in God’s bosom, or even our bereavements. For he who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present, than the living man. Nevertheless, knowing their anguish, I pitied men. And I resolved to heal them. For him alone have I compassion who wakes in the great ancestral night, thinking himself sheltered under God’s canopy of stars, and suddenly feels himself a wayfarer - whither bound he knows not. I forbid questionings, for I know that never any answer slakes our thirst. And that he who questions is seeking, primarily, the abyss.”- Excerpt from Citadelle
