生活中还有什么是爱情不能渗透的呢?梅布尔·哈伯德从小就耳聋,她送给亚历山大·贝尔一架钢琴作为结婚礼物,并要求他每天为她弹奏,仿佛他的音乐可以打破她的沉默。几十年后,在贝尔临终前,是他的妻子发出了声音,说出了“不要离开我”这句话,而他已经无法说话,只能用手语回答:“不。”(What in life can love not penetrate? Mabel Hubbard, deaf since childhood, gave Alexander Bell a piano as a wedding gift and asked that he play it for her every day, as if his music could pierce her silence. Decades later, at Bell's deathbed, it was his wife who made the sounds, saying the words, "Don't leave me," while he, no longer able to talk, used sign language to answer, No.)
