~罗伯特·弗罗斯特
有人说,世界将毁于火,
有人说,毁于冰。
我尝到过欲望的滋味,
同意偏爱火的那些人。
但如果它必须被摧毁两次,
我想,以我对恨的充分认识,
可以断言,冰的破坏力
同样巨大
且能成事。
(桔子 译)
Fire
and Ice
~Robert
Frost
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Gustave Dore, The Gate of Hell
