5、有的是心靈的真諦.世界上放之四海而皆準(zhǔn)的真理是：任何創(chuàng)作一旦缺乏愛,榮譽(yù),同情,自豪,憐憫和犧牲都將是短暫的,是注定要失敗的.如果創(chuàng)作者不能做到這一點(diǎn),那么就永遠(yuǎn)無法寫出佳作.他不是寫愛情而是寫情欲,他寫的失敗是不會(huì)被認(rèn)為可貴的,他寫的勝利是沒有希望的,甚至是沒有憐憫和缺乏同情的.由于他的悲傷不是出自世上生靈,不是發(fā)自內(nèi)心,所以留下不深刻的痕跡.Untilherelearnsthesethings,hewillwriteasthoughhestoodamongandwatchedtheendofman.Ideclinetoaccepttheendofman.Itiseasyenoughtosa
