I was absolutely shocked at how romantic this pervert’s lines were:
我實在沒想到這個變態的台詞竟然如此浪漫：

“I looked and looked at her… and I knew as clearly as I know that I will die, that I loved her more than anything I’ve ever seen or imagined on earth. She was only the dead leaf echo of the nymphet from long ago…but I loved her, this Lo**ta, pale and polluted and big with another man’s child. She could fade and wither - I didn’t care. I would still go mad with tenderness… at the mere sight of her face.”
“我看她，又看又看。我知道我現在因罪，但我那時更清楚我愛她勝過任何我所見所夢的世間一切。從前她是人間尤物，再見卻 只是殘燈枯萎影⋯⋯蒼白、污濁、沉重身子懷著另一個男人的孩子，但我愛這個洛麗塔，我愛她她可以褪色可以枯萎，我不在乎。而我只要看她⋯⋯。 萬般柔情依舊湧上心頭。”

The attitude under the pandemic.

Three Days to See
By Helen Keller

All of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year, sometimes as short as 24 hours. But always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed hero chose to spend his last days or his last hours. I speak, of course, of free men who have a choice, not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited.

Such stories set us thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances. What events, what experiences, what associations should we crowd into those last hours as mortal beings, what regrets?

假如給我三天光明
海倫凱勒

我們都讀過震撼人心的故事，故事中的主人公只能再活一段很有限的時光，有時長達一年，有時卻短至一日。但我們總是想要知道，注定要離世人的會選擇如何度過自己最後的時光。當然，我說的是那些有選擇權利的自由人，而不是那些活動範圍受到嚴格限定的死囚。

這樣的故事讓我們思考，在類似的處境下，我們該做些什麼?作為終有一死的人，在臨終前的幾個小時內我們應該做什麼事，經曆些什麼或做哪些聯想?回憶往昔，什麼使我們開心快樂?什麼又使我們悔恨不已?

The Road Not Taken
未选择的路
Robert Frost
罗伯特·弗罗斯特 　　
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, 　　
黄色的树林里分出两条路
And sorry I could not travel both 　　
可惜我不能同时去涉足
And be one traveler, long I stood 　　
我在那路口久久伫立 　
And looked down one as far as I could 　　
我向着一条路极目望去 　
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
直到它消失在丛林深处 　
　
Then took the other, as just as fair, 　　
但我却选择了另外一条路
And having perhaps the better claim, 　　
它荒草萋萋，十分幽寂
Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 　　
显得更诱人，更美丽
Though as for that the passing there 　　
虽然在这两条小路上
Had worn them really about the same, 　　
都很少留下旅人的足迹

And both that morning equally lay 　　
虽然那天清晨落叶满地
In leaves no step had trodden black. 　　
两条路都未经脚印污染
Oh, I kept the first for another day! 　　
呵，留下一条路等改日再见
Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 　　
但我知道路径延绵无尽头
I doubted if I should ever come back. 　　
恐怕我难以再回返


I shall be telling this with a sigh 　　
也许多少年后在某一个地方
Somewhere ages and ages hence: 　　
我将轻声叹息把往事回顾

Two roads diverged in a wood,and I— 　　
一片森林里分出两条路
I took the one less traveled by, 　　
而我却选择了人迹更少的一条

And that has made all the difference.
从此决定了我一生的道路

Catch a cold

A brilliant opportunity or beautiful love is like a cold, either you catch it or you miss it. What matters more is how you handle it after catching it. Catch it or miss it. Now or never. C’est la vie. Lol
