人间词话

（１）《诗经·蒹葭》：“蒹葭苍苍，白露为霜。所谓伊人，在水一方。溯洄从之，道阻且长。溯游从之，宛在水中央。蒹葭凄凄，白露未□〔日希〕。所谓伊人，在水之湄。溯洄从之，道阻且跻。溯游从之，宛在水中坻。蒹葭采采，白露未已。所谓伊人，在水之□〔矣加水旁〕，溯洄从之，道阻且右。溯游从之，宛在水中□〔止加水旁〕。”（２）晏殊【蝶恋花】：“槛菊愁烟兰泣露。罗幕轻寒，燕子双飞去。明月不谙别离苦，斜光到晓穿朱户。昨夜西风凋碧树。独上高楼，望尽天涯路。欲寄彩笺兼尺素，山长水阔知何处。”

假如给我三天光明

在我一生漫长的黑夜里，我读过的和人们读给我听的那些书，已经成为了一座辉煌的巨大灯塔，为我指示出了人生及心灵的最深的航道。

我的天才女友

在那一刻，我更清楚什么是庶民，要比几年前奥利维耶罗老师问我时更加清楚。我们就是庶民，庶民就是争抢食物和酒，就是为了上菜的先后次序、服务好坏而争吵，就是那面肮脏的地板——服务员正在上面走来走去，就是那些越来越粗俗的祝酒词。

自深深处

You admired my work when it was finished: you enjoyed the brilliant successes of my first nights, and the brilliant banquets that followed them: you were proud, and quite naturally so, of being the intimate friend of an artist so distinguished: but you could not understand the conditions requisite for the production of artistic work. I am not speaking in phrases of rhetorical exaggeration but in terms of absolute truth to actual fact when I remind you that during the whole time we were together I never wrote one single line. Whether at Torquay, Goring, London, Florence or elsewhere, my life, as long as you were by my side, was entirely sterile and uncreative. And with but few intervals you were, I regret to say, by my side always.
