人类之所以纠结,在于沉重的肉身和高傲的灵魂之间不可调和的矛盾。人若是卑微,总是世俗的纷扰让我们难以自拔;人若是高尚,只是因为心中的理想。我们是魔鬼的孩子,却长着天使的翅膀。
A man suffers from inescapable pain, a torturing split between the sunken flesh and the arrogant soul. So sunken the flesh is that a man indulges himself into lust, sloth, greed and hatred, so arrogant the soul is that he never abandons his rights of morality, religion, passion and freedom. A man is never a demon, nor is he an angel。
