如果您说您的时间到来时，有些人嘲笑您。好吧，他们可以笑，那些聪明的人，但是我们肯定必须希望，而没有任何希望的生活不是生活：那是没有星星的天空，一种悲伤和空虚的风景。
(Some people mocked you if you said that you joined others when your time came. Well, they could laugh, those clever people, but we surely had to hope, and a life without hope of any sort was no life: it was a sky without stars, a landscape of sorrow and emptiness.)
