'My darling Clemmie, in your letter from Madras you wrote some words very dear to me, about having enriched your life. I cannot tell you what pleasure this gave me, because I always feel so overwhelmingly in your debt, if there can be accounts in love.'
“我亲爱的克莱米,你在来信中提到的那些丰富你生活的话语对我来说非常珍贵。我无法向你形容这带给我的快乐。如果爱情也有账户,那我已经淹没在这份情债中。”
from see you one eye, i shit love you.
自从看到你的第一眼,我就爱上你。
I don't know the passion until i met you
I don't know the sorrow until i left you
But now I do know the love when I cherish you
遇见你之前我不知道热情
离开你之前我不知道悲伤
但是我现在知道要爱你,在我珍惜你的时候
'We get old and get used to each other. We think alike. We read each others minds. We know what the other wants without asking. Sometimes we irritate each other a little bit. Maybe sometimes take each other for granted. But once in awhile, like today, I meditate on it and realise how lucky I am to share my life with the greatest woman I ever met.'
“我们渐渐变老,也早已习惯了彼此。我们想法一致、灵魂互通。无需询问我们便知道对方想要什么。偶尔我们也会惹对方不高兴,但那或许是因为我们真正把对方视作了理所当然的伴侣。有时候比如今天,我沉思之后意识到,能够与你这样一个我所见过的最伟大的女人共度余生,我是多么的幸运。”
