译文:有一种忠心被人视为愚行,就是“愚忠”,也有一种孝行被人视为愚行,那是“愚孝”,由此可知,“忠”,“孝”两个字,太过聪明的人是做不来的。同样地,仁和义的行为中,也有虚伪的“假仁”和“假义”,由此可以知道,在一般人所说的仁义之士中,不见得没有奸险狡诈的人。
The writer's only responsibility is to his art. He will be completely ruthless if he is a good one. He has a dream. It anguishes him so much he must get rid of it. He has no peace until then.
The act of writing is an act of optimism. You would not take the trouble to do it if you felt it didn't matter.
