第253章 皆得皆安

Everything comes at its own hour， Nathaniel; everything is born of its need and is merely， so to speak， the outward expression of a need.

—The Fruits of the Earth， Writer， André Gide

纳撒尼尔，万事万物都有其发生的时刻。一切都是源于其需要，或者说，它们仅仅是回应某种需要的外在表现。

——《人间食粮》安德烈·纪德，作家

The delight one takes in one’s work is the sign of its fittingness， and the sincerity of my pleasure， Nathaniel， is my chief guide.

—The Fruits of the Earth， André Gide

乐在其中，就表明这事情适合你去做，纳撒尼尔，由衷的愉悦是我行动的最重要指南。

——《人间食粮》纪德

While other people were publishing or working， I， on the contrary， devoted three years of travel to forgetting all that I had learnt with my head. This unlearning was slow and difficult; it was of more use to me than all the learning imposed by men， and was really the beginning of an education.

—André Gide

别人纷纷发表著作，或者工作钻研，我却相反，漫游了三年。力图忘掉我所博闻强记的东西。这一退还学识的过程，既缓慢又艰难，不过，退还了人们灌输给我的全部知识，对我更有裨益：一种教育这才真正开始。

——纪德

Act without judging whether the action is right or wrong. Love without caring whether what you love is good or bad.

—André Gide

要行动，不必考虑这行为是好是坏。要爱，不必顾及这爱是善是恶。

——纪德
