Quote - 激情

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. … Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth.
三种单纯而炽烈的激情支配着我的一生：对于爱情的渴望，对于知识的追求，以及对于人类苦难痛彻肺腑的怜悯。……爱情和知识只要获得，总是向上导往天堂，但怜悯又总是把我带回人间。
——伯特兰·罗素 《我为什么而活着？》
