2、对知识的探索和对人类苦难的难以忍受的怜悯。这些激情像飓风,反复地吹拂过深重的苦海,濒于绝境。Ihavesoughtlove,first,becauseitbringsecstasy-ecstasysogreatthatIwouldoftenhavesacrificedallmyrestoflifeforafewhoursofthisjoy.Ihavesoughtit,nextbecauseitrelievesloneliness-thatterriblelonelinessinwhichoneshiveringconsciousnesslooks

4、und.我寻找爱,首先是因为它使人心醉神迷。这种陶醉是如此的美妙,使我愿意牺牲所有的余生去换取几个小时这样的欣喜。我寻找爱,还因为它解除孤独(在可怕的孤独中,一颗颤抖的灵魂从世界的边缘看到冰冷、无底、死寂的深渊。最后,我寻找爱,还因为在爱的交融中,神秘而又具体入微地,我看到了圣贤和诗人们想象出的天堂的前景。这就是我所寻找的,而且,虽然对人生来说似乎过于美妙,这也是我终于找到了的。Withequa1passionIhavesoughtknowledge.Ihavewishedtounderstandtheheartsofmen.Ihavewishe

7、但是怜悯总把我带回尘世。痛苦呼喊的回声回荡在我的内心。忍饥挨饿的孩子,惨遭压迫者摧残的受害者,被儿女们视为可憎的负担的痛苦无助的老人,使人类所应有的生活成为了笑柄。我渴望能够减少邪恶,但是我无能为力,而且我自己也在忍受折磨。Thishasbeenmylife.Ihavefounditworthliving,andwou1dgladlyliveitagainifthechancewereofferedme.这就是我的一生。我发现它值得一过。如果再给我一次机会,我会很高高兴地再活它一次。
