Melancholy is nothing but abated fervor.

嫉妒他人的幸福是疯狂愚蠢的；一旦你拥有了，你会无所适从。

——《背德者》安德烈·纪德，作家

One must allow others to be right. It consoles them for not being anything else.

—The Immoralist， Writer， André Gide

一个人必须允许别人是正确的，如此才能安慰那些人的一事无成。

——《背德者》安德烈·纪德，作家

The only real education es from what goes counter to you.

—Writer， André Gide

唯一真正的教育来自和你背道而驰的东西。

——安德烈·纪德，作家

The truth is that as soon as we are no longer obliged to earn our living， we no longer know what to do with our life and recklessly squander it.

—Journals， 1889-1949， Essayist， André Gide

事实上，一旦我们不用被迫谋生，就不知道该怎么过日子了，只好肆无忌惮地挥霍生活。
