我从来没有坐下来研究圣经，从来没有有意识地附和它的语言，事实上，我和大多数长大的基督徒一样对它一无所知。我在工作中使用的所有圣经都是我从小就记住的，是所有在英语社区长大的人的共同财产。
(I have never sat down and studied the Bible, never consciously echoed its language, and am, in reality, as ignorant of it as most brought-up Christians. All of the Bible that I use in my work is remembered from childhood and is the common property of all who were brought up in English-speaking communities.)
